Posted on January 23, 2022January 23, 2022I just finished meeting with my Sunday writing group and I haven’t laughed so hard all week. Want to join in the fun? Send me a message.
Posted on March 23, 2020March 23, 2020With all of the talk about #growyourowntp this week, now seems as good a time as any to spread more seed on this #mullein #hugelkultur nursery bed.#thankyourain#seasonalwork#growyourown#butnothingbeatsabidet#orchard#latewinter#theproblemisthesolution #designforthefuture#permaculturefarm #healthyfarmer#truesustainability#permaculture#permacultura #holistichealth#observeandinteract

Posted on March 23, 2020March 23, 2020While full Spring, with its luscious perennial herb-flower-weed salads, is months away, you can liven up your chilly late February with a visit to the #winterbluesfarmersmarket2020 on Saturday. Visit the Scion Design booth and connect with me about your permaculture questions. I will have a variety of @vernal_vibe_rise belly and body products from my farm as well. See you there!#wvsmallfarmsconference #permaculturewomen #selfcare#livepermaculture #permaculturefarm #healthyfarmer#selfcarewhilefarming#truesustainability#permaculture#permacultura #holistichealth#observeandinteract
Posted on February 9, 2020February 9, 2020A little bright spot of soft Summer fruit on this darkest day of transition into Winter.

Posted on February 9, 2020February 9, 2020What about #rosamultiflora —is there a favorite solution that works well for you? I have practiced cutting, digging, and (where suitable) leaving them be or utilizing #multiflorarose as a living and impenetrable fence a la @degraff.lisa . I practiced some loose experiments in 2019 to see if the legends of they-come-back-stronger-when-cut are true, and I may be a believer. Season of cutting surely factors into this, of course. What have you tried on your farm or landscape? What has worked? What has not? #permaculturecommunity#learntogether#hivemind#theproblemisthesolution #designforthefuture#permaculturefarm #healthyfarmer#truesustainability#permaculture#permacultura #holistichealth#observeandinteract
Posted on February 9, 2020February 9, 2020As this year eases to a close, I am realizing that I have so many memories from the past few seasons that I have yet to share. So, please forgive the deluge, and know that I am home and cozy on @vernal_vibe_rise despite the wide-ranging locales on view as this year winds down. Here is your perennial reminder of the vitality of plants; they really do want to grow everywhere.#floridakeys2019#fern#wallvplant#permacultureholiday#permaculturedesign#designforthefuture#permaculturefarm #truesustainability#permaculture#permacultura
