Eat Like Breathe
A decentralized food co-op reconnecting people, farmers, and land.
Eat Like Breathe (ELB) helps communities access real, seasonal food from local farmers —
while quietly building the foundation for stronger local economies and future land stewardship.
This is food as infrastructure.
A new food trend — grounded in Nature and People.
What is Eat Like Breathe?
Eat Like Breathe is a decentralized food co-op designed to relocalize food systems and reduce dependence on centralized supply chains.
It works for:
-
People who want better food
-
Farmers who want direct access to communities
-
Anyone curious about life beyond permanent urban dependence
Food is the entry point — because it’s universal, practical, and immediate.
Why Eat Like Breathe Exists
Our current food system is centralized, fragile, and disconnected from both land and people.
Small and mid-size farmers struggle to survive.
Communities lose access to real, seasonal food.
Money flows away from local economies instead of circulating within them.
Eat Like Breathe exists to rebuild what’s missing — local food infrastructure, not ideology.
It is designed to work within real life, real constraints, and real human behavior.
Foundational Pillars
PILLAR 01
Local First
We prioritize small and mid-size farmers, makers, and producers who grow and create food within real ecological limits.
Local-first means:
-
Seasonal over year-round imports
-
Regional supply chains over global ones
-
Resilient relationships over anonymous transactions
This keeps food closer to where it’s grown — and money closer to where it’s spent.
PILLAR 02
Community Over Intermediaries
Modern food systems rely on long chains of intermediaries that extract value while disconnecting producers from people.
Eat Like Breathe reduces unnecessary layers so:
-
Farmers can earn fairly
-
Communities know where their food comes from
-
Trust replaces abstraction
This is not about removing structure — it’s about rebuilding the right structure.
PILLAR 03
Food Is the Beginning
Food is the most universal point of entry into a healthier way of living.
Stronger food systems lead to:
-
Stronger communities
-
Stronger local economies
-
Deeper connection to place
Over time, this creates the conditions for shared stewardship of land — naturally, gradually, and voluntarily.
Homestead 2.0 — United Kin Domains of America
Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come.
Homestead 2.0 envisions a return to land-based living through small, self-sustaining settlements — where families steward their own 2.5-acre domains across generations, in harmony with nature and community.
