PHISOLAMA recognizes
agriculture as a community activity of humankind since the earliest days of
civilization. Community agriculture is perhaps the beating heart of a functional
civilization. PHISOLAMA'S agricultural efforts are designed to promote the
reclamation of the heart connection of individuals with their community, as well
as the communities with the Land upon which they reside --at the same time
fostering the interdependence of the individuals within their local communities.
PHISOLAMA is committed to empowering local communities to ensure that none need
go hungry, and that all agricultural practices are ecologically
sound.
PHISOLAMA endeavors to promote
sustainable locally owned and controlled agriculture, placing a high value on
bioregional principles and species diversity.
PHISOLAMA'S intention is to
support, (through coordinated cooperation with our all of it's special focus

previous failed international agricultural
'revolutions'.
