killtoeat 0 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 (edited) Hi there Firstly to introduce myself - my name is Claire Braden and I am a first-time director who has just been commissioned my first half hour film. I am making it about people who are very good at saving money and being frugal. The reason I have come on this site is because I want to find someone who can show me how they largely survive without going to spend money in supermarkets etc. Do any of you know of anyone who largely lives off shooting their own meat and possibly growing their own veg? I want to find a true country man or woman who can take me in to the countryside and show me how to live off the land. I am featuring 4 or 5 people in the half hour film - so it is just a 5 minute portrait of someone who has achieved this way of living. I would love it if you could put me in touch with them. My contact details are tel: 0207 482 5885 or email claire.braden@zkktv.com Thanks for your help - please do let me know about anyone suitable and then they can decide if it is for them or not.

killtoeat 0 Posted October 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 hi welcome to the site great people on here the suppermarkets would be a good start they throw alot of good food away Thanks! Too true - they throw away lots - do you ever go and get food from them? Like freeganists do. Do you hunt to eat and save money? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest WILF Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 (edited) It wont be the normal TV assasination job of hunters with the folk who take part made to look like bloodthirsty freaks will it? Your user name betrays the normal ignorance found in the media and public.......KILL TO EAT.......well, wether it be directly or indirectly everyone in the world who eats meat is killing to eat. Hunters conduct pest control and take a small harvest from the land........yes an animal must die to produce meat, but hunters harvest. Unfortunately, "Natural harvest" is not such a catchy title Edited October 22, 2008 by WILF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
