It is the traditional concept of the African village brought to an eco-friendly, sustainable, modern lifestyle.
Inspired by Grandma
Inspired by Naomi’s grandmother, Grannynomics are a mixture of common sense, good parenting, social etiquette, personal self-development, economic sustainability, empowerment, and holistic health.
“In my life, values were derived from the economic soul of my own grandmother’s home and business management,” Naomi says.
“She was Adelia Thompson Siggers of Minter City, Mississippi, a sharecropper’s wife. By understanding her operating system—the one in which my mother, and I, in turn, were raised—I’ve been able to begin distinguishing whole-system solutions which once operated sustainably in our urban villages.”
The handbook
BIG publishes the Grannynomics handbook found HERE as an important resource.
This is how communities made a way when there did not seemn to be a way; they grew food, started businesses, and kept money flowing.
“Provide residents, community organizers, nonprofits, local government officials, and anyone interested in sustainable living with the tools and resources needed to transform your community into a sustainable square mile.”
