Lost photo galleries

The Society kept several photo albums: its laboratory in 2008, the Living Bread, the tribe.net community. The Internet Archive saved the album pages but not the photos. Here are their titles, captions, authors and dates, each beside Teeter's own photo of the same subject from his site or book.

This is the Authors pasteurization equipment, a large pressure cooker pot, with the metal stand to hold the bottles off the hot bottom of the pot. There is no need to use pressure I simply use a stainless steel salad bowl for a cover that is tall enough to not touch the bottle’s polyfill plug. Chapter 15 →
This is the Authors growing area, in an old refrigerator with the doors shimmed open slightly to provide for air circulation. Chapter 15 →
