please read and think about the implications that it has.

Damm!! we are broke again!!

we did a few mistakes, such as landing waaaay to much money!! so now the fruitarian shop is threatening to close!! that means 20 fruitarians will have nothing to eat!!

heres a new passage of our new website, fruitariancommunity.tk

To give everyone an idea of how we will use the money...
Lets say we get 2000 euros...
With that i will have maybe all the seeds i need for the 80 acres sreaming to be planted, ill hire 2-3 guys full time for at least 2 months, buy a beter water pump, ill build more shelters to create my fasting retreat, the shop will have more fruits, less bananas and more papaya, and it will be garanty to be running until our gardens give enough fruits.
Don't forget that i'm in Kenya, everything is ver very cheap!!

Now let's say we would get 100 euros...
we would build more water tanks for the local fruitarians that needs it to cover their lands with fruits only. We could run the shop for another 2 month, or we could even open an other shop that is actually on demand. Without forgeting the urgent need for seeds.

lets talk about that fruitarian shop some more, again, here is a extract of our website, in the F.A.Q> section...

Tell me about that shop, how does it run?
That shop is the core of this project. The people are influencing each
other, soooo much! heres how it goes... The shop is at the market
called Saouri, not many people grow fruits there. All the fruits are
at 16 km away, in a market called Kunati. The market days are monday,
wednesday, and friday. So each of those days, i send 3 guys (soon 4,
then 5...) with their bicycles, and two big crates each (will add
photo) to the market, 16km away. Its uphill, so the way back is not so
hard. They each come back with about 80kg of fruits, no joke! I
personnely did it for 3 weeks, and i came to like it very much! So i
get them to get the fruits from Kunati, at very cheap, and contrary to
the other guys whom go there and do the same thing, but re-sells the
fruits at twice the price, i re-sell them at the same price, or
almost. So only then the locals can afford living on a fruit only
diet
.


Its big!! really big!! everyone should help with this thing!!

We are now 16 fruitarians!! 100%!!!

thank you david for help and concern, it was nice to have someone whom understand what kind of place i am from.

Ok, now we seriously need a website, i know its a lot of work, but what is hapening here is just too big!! So please, just a small website, contact me on my e-mail, wearefruitarian@gmail.com.

So what else... ive planted about 5 thousand papaya trees, i have no idea of the percentage that will survive, but im planting (mostly throwing) almost 2000 per week... We are planting totomoko, or soursop (high on fructose!!), watermelon, rockmelon, some mangoe, i will know in a few hours about some loquats, never heard before, i see them everywhere, but i always though they were passion fruits!! those are everywhere, so ill taste and if good ill buy lots to plant, and thanks to david, we will have a lot of jackfruits or maybe jampedak!! Ho yhea, I'm sorry sunshine, but everyone here has been puting pressur on me and i don't really have a joice... im getting banana plants.... lol, i know its not juicy, and its probebly not human food, but they have some pretty good varieties here!! lol. Unfortunetly no one but sunshine's mom has sent us some seeds, so we hope that will change!! come on everyone!! I have 50 acres to plant!!and about 40 more for the local fruitarians!!

The fruitarians are doing great, they have no cravings, as i expected!!! no problem! I told the parents that they don't have to wash their kids everyday, or to brush their teeth, you shouldve seen their faces!! They realize more and more about the impact of it all, and they keep saying that all the people of their church will turn fruitarian. We are already making plans for saving up to buy as much land as possible, in the area i've send people to find the candyland, very recluded and low population, the best in kenya if you ask me!! They have been suffering a lot from the government, they are against i.d. cards, sending kids to school, making money and using technology, so they know that one day they will have to run away and hide, interesting huh?? they are planting all they can plant, and are asking me for seeds all the time. They are convince that in a few months they will be self suficient on fruits!! And Biti, the father of the famiily of 6 kids i mentioned before, has a lot of experience in growing all the kinds of fruits here. And he keeps repeating, we need more seeds!!

The shop is doing ok, it is self running but is expensive, about 20 euro per week is alot, the community's funds are at about 650euro, must make it last, in case we don't receive anymore donations. We should be able to last for another 3-4 month.

The rain season made everything back to green!! yheaaa!!! this is difinetly the most beautifull place in kenya!The rivers are raging, the birds are singning all the time, so many of them, of all colours! And for some strange reasons, don't know wich, we can now see the top of mount kenya from where we live!! i saw the snow!

As for sunshine, nixon and tanya, they are still on the coast, sunshine has always been recovering the best way he can since he recovered from a near death experience 2 and half years ago, fruit diet and fasting has kept him alive, but the process of this adventure has taken a lot from him. Tanya i havent got any news from her, im really curious!! And nixon also. I seriously hope they will come as soon as possible!!

So i repeat, we need someone to create a website!! please!!!

where should i start...

14 PEOPLE HAVE BECOME FRUITARIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this includes a family of 6 kids, and another of 1 kid!!

I have open last monday the first fruitarian fruit shop!! a place where people can buy fruits anytime of the day, anytime of the week, of all the variety accesible,totomoko (soursop), papaya (the best i've had in kenya), bananas, kiwano, the guavas might get good, just started, and cherimoyas are coming, all at half the price!! So for about 50ksh (0.50euro)per day one can become fruitarian!! I only have to pay someone to get the fruits, wich i have to do anyway!!

is that enough good news??? i have more!!

i have been making friend with a local here by the name of Biti, he is the one with the 6 kids and a wife. He has been trying to make me understand what kind of impact my message would have on the people of his religion. And now i really understand, listen to this!!

they are against schools, claiming that the industries has made them, and the industries are the devil. They dryfast every couple of weeks for 2-4 days, they sing and pray when they plant, they are against music instruments, they don't take medecine, they are against money, but still use it thinking they have no choice, and complain about it very seriously as if they had no solution (not anymore), and don't go to church, they gather under a very nice tree on top of a hill.

Biti has been repeating to me that all of his community will become fruitarian as soon as they can... thats about a 1000 people... And i now beleive it!! this is a big news everyone!! Big big news!!! there is now 9 of them with us, but many more almost every day are joining!!

So everyone!! time to seriously take this in consideration, we need fruit tree seeds!!!!! tropical, sweet and juicy!! they have started planting their land as soon as i first told them you can live on fruits, and they keep asking me for seeds as if their life depended on it!!

This is the begining of something very big, so any help will be great, like someone to create a real website, showing the pictures of the fruitarian families, the babies beeing born, the lands, the fruits...

This could change the world forever!!!

on another subject, i still have problems with getting my land and shelter built, it will hopefully be done this week, then the healing continues!! I have already started planting, the rain season has finaly arrived, the river is insane!!!

what else.... please re-read!!!!

Don't be shy to send that link to anyone whom might be interested in helping, this project is flourishing, bigger than i ever thought.

Pom and friends


PS- i think the blog has been deleted by blogger, i was asking for donations, they might have taken me for a spamer...

Pom on April 21

we have peter, a local that is new but 100% commited to the project and fruitarianism, whom will sell some of his property (about 100acres) for around 700/acre, wich is were we are creating the base camp.

But thats not all, for 80euro he will build you a house, all material included, 100% natural, no nails, mud, branchs and grass.
Solar power will cost 800 fully equiped, but if david decides to establish here also (80% shure i think), he will probebly get it install.

We will all be neighbors. Im making my garden, like the others, but we have the rest of the land that peter will let us plant, wich will become the comunity garden. For the locals turning fruitarian that doesnt live with us.

And then we will have the comfort that everyone prefer to have to organize their next step, me and david wants to plant around 200acre, i personely want to go live in it when its ready. Until then its about compremising the best way as possible, teaching, fasting, comunity building, maybe creating a organisation to help the locals like david's project, and more.

The land is where i though would be ideal for creating base camp, bye ura river, south border of meru national park. It took me many month with the help of sunshine and tanya to find that place, you can just trust my judgement for how paradisiac the place is!

Further east the land get dangeresly cheap, like 200-400euro per acre. Wich is where the big project will hapen.

We have the water pump, the seeds (of course we need waaay more) to start with, the workers, even volunteers!

We need kids and elders! Join or help in other way!!! We only have one natural habitat, lets work together to get it back!

Pom on April 20

Some news!
we have received donations, wich i will use to fix up the basecamp and to buy pipes for the water pump belonging to the new member of the comunity, peter! He is 5 day fruitarian, but has been studying my teachings and working with me as my handy man for 6 weeks, his brother though has turned fruitarian a week afer he met me, so 5 weeks! The donater is from california, i dont know if he wants to stay anonymus so thank you californian fruitarian! He got broke to help the mission! Thats the way! Lol

also, david came and visit me, he also helped with donations and was quite impress with location, especialy when we heard elephants at less then 1 hundred metres from us! I forgot to mention, the park we live next to has 17 permenant rivers!


I hope to have some pictures soon.

Many local fruits have appeared, guavas and dragon fruits, and cherimoyas will slowly apear within 2 weeks they say!

I spoke to many people, including the growers themselfs, and they dont spray! Very very good news!

One more good news, i have received 1 pakage of seeds out of 4, after almost 3 weeks! But now that i know there is other fruit trees in kenya then mangoes, i feel much more secure.

One bad news, as i was gonna start my fast, the kenya wildlife services came and kiked me out of the island i was renting, after all it is part of the national park...im trying to get my money back. But its ok, i will rent right next to it , for cheaper.

I hope that everybody whom was motivated in joining or helping are still enthousiastic, we need positive vibration, members joining, and more kind of help that im not allowed to ask for otherwise blogger will delete me again... Thanks already to all of you!

Fruits and unity to the earth and people,

Just a reminder.

weve been broke for a while now, after geting coned twice for many thousand dolars, and learning that sunshine's house can not be sold as easely as expected....so we found a extra cheep place to live. about 50 cents per week each....

The search had to continu, so i left the group on a bicicle, i biked 600km to get to meru national park, learned that it's more than perfect (houra!) and now im preparing a garden of melons.

It cost about 15euro each per week to live where i am. So a minimum of 50 euro per week could do it.

So sunshine, tanya and nixon are on the coast, waiting for me to get a garden that will substain 4 to 7 fruitarian, at least, or until we get enough donations, or sunshine's house gets sold!

So let me say it one more time... if anyone wants to help now its a good time!!!
The way we live shows what is our next step: to renonce money completely. We are not to far from that, the people READY to join us are not far behind also...

We seriously do our best
