Control oil and you control nations.  Control food and you control the people.

--Henry Kissinger

Patrick Finney

My name is Patrick Finney, and I am a hunter, fisherman, farmer, and homesteader.  I created this website for people who are re-evaluating the role technology plays in their lives and are looking to take back control over their food security.  For those who are tired of grappling with food production in the US that is increasingly technocentric, consolidated, and fragile, I invite you to embrace an Alternative Food System.  

CONTROL YOUR FOOD, CONTROL YOUR FUTURE.

Control Your Food, Control Your Future.

What is an alternative food system?  An alternative food system is a network of hunters, fishermen, farmers, gardeners, and homesteaders that operates outside of the corporate food industry.  This network consists of individuals who are dedicated to procuring their own food and seeking the freedom, agency, and autonomy this lifestyle provides.  Included in this network are concerned citizens who are unable to hunt, fish, farm, and garden for their own food but have chosen to patronize small-scale, independent, and regenerative family farms for their food needs.  If you are tired of Big Ag and Big Tech telling you what you can eat, when you can eat it, and how much you are going to pay for it,  then opt out today and pursue a better life for you and your family.
