First off, Governor Brown signed the California Homemade Food Act, AB 1616, into law this past week. So Californians will soon be able to make and sell “non-hazardous” foods in a home kitchen and sell them.
But how will those goods get delivered? Above, a bakery in Holland using that long lost mode of transport, the dog cart. Picture via Terrierman’s Daily Dose.
Interesting… first heard of this from the 1949 novel Earth Abides. Survivors of a pandemic-induced collapse found dog carts the most effective means of long distance transportation. Unlike horses dogs are much easier to handle, can eat human food scraps or feed themselves but don’t need large pastures. The main characters also used them as an alarm system and hunting companions.
They will be moved by CARGO BIKE! Hopefully, these will all be bought from my shop, the Flying Pigeon.
Indeed! When I get that podcast together we’ll have to have you on!
