After being evicted from Zuccotti Park on Nov. 15, a contingent of Occupy Wall Street protestors are heading to a farm in upstate N.Y., which may become a template for more “Occupy Farms.”
“The movement has occupied urban areas, and now we’re moving into more natural settings,” [protester David McNerney] said. “This is a different narrative than what’s come before.”
McNerney is drafting a proposal for $15,000 to launch a formal “Occupy Farms.” The group has purchased the Web domain name occupiedfarms.com, which will also be capable of accepting online donations.
The seed money would be earmarked for farm tools, beds for 50 people and outreach funds to recruit other farms in other states, including Massachusetts and Florida.
Wait wait wait….this is dumber.
