living in permaculture

an exploration into what consumes, excites, and enlightens me... creating a world where everyone has enough through earth care, people care, and surplus sharing!

.

i salute the light within your eyes where the whole universe dwells. for when you are at that centre within you and i am at that place within me, we shall be one. - chief crazy horse, oglala sioux, 1877

About Me

rain: like many people, i am genuinely skilled at paying lip service to things that seem hard to me. give me an ethic or philosophy to stew on and i'm in heaven, but give me practical ideas and skills that i could use to change my life... well that will take me awhile. really, it will. i seem to get scared i guess. so, having noticed this pattern yet again, i am done!! yes i am no longer simply giving lip service to permaculture - i am taking action. step 1 is this blog. step 2 is mapping our land. step 3 will be planning around our 5 sloped acres of southwest facing land. planning: water, access, structure. and then of course step 4 is years of doing!!!
