Internet-based maps transform how communities share food resources. Glean the Planet is a web site designed to facilitate the redistribution of community and individual food resources. The sitewww.gleantheplanet.com offers both discussion forums and open source mapping software from Google maps and Platial.com. By allowing users to map specific locations and illustrate them with pictures and additional detailed information, this mapping software helps people facilitate the local sharing of food outside of monetary-based economies. For instance, if you know of a food baring tree, a stand of bamboo or a healthy dumpster in your neighborhood, you can plot it on Glean the Planets maps. You find the map of your state and make an entry. Then add web links, text, and photos to your entries and others. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Earn your permaculture design certificate.
