permaculture consultation with paul wheaton

I'm okay with doing this over a phone, but it would be better if you have good internet and we can do a zoom call.  That way you can show me oodles of pictures of what you want to talk about.  

That said, I now wish to discourage you from doing this.  I think that most people seeking permaculture advice will be much happier contacting somebody else.   Somebody that is nice.  The few people that have done this and seemed to like it are people that have listened to all (or most) of my podcasts.  

So here is the next step.   Click on this link to part with $250.   I will then email you to work out the particulars.

This guy agreed to have his consultation recorded




And here is a consultation I recorded into a podcast and later, thebernal brothers mashed it into an animation:

Just paid for a 1 hour consultation! Can’t wait to chat with you Paul!

Got the coin and sent you an email!

In Paul's recent new podcast, you can hear his consultation with Samantha, who won a permaculture consult session with Paul on a previous Kickstarter.  This podcast is over a few sessions and here is part 2 where they talk extensively about hugelkultur:

Hi, Paul:

I want to book a consultation but don't use any of the listed methods of payment. Do you use Venmo or Apple Pay?

Best,
Bonnie Bassan

No and no.  

We have had some people send an amazon gift card.

I can send an Amazon gift card. How do I send it? And how do I book the consult? What is your email address?

Got it!

I have now sent you an email!  Let's get this party started!

Would you be up for doing consultation on purchasing land? I'll be buying some in Maine in the next few months and would like your insight on some properties.

I sent you an email to get started on sorting out the particulars.

Paid today! I am hoping to get help planning for next season as I start to do fall cleanup. Been listening to a lot of podcast backlog so I think I have a decent idea of what I’m getting into 😅. Email me at the address I paid from with further instructions I guess?

Good afternoon Brock!

I know Paul is currently traveling for a few days so a response may be delayed. Someone will be in touch with you to get everything sorted, thank you for your patience.

No rush, thanks for the heads up!

Hey Brock! Paul will have to get back to you when he gets notice of your payment email address. However, I have helped set a few of these things up for him.
A few things to know: the more you put into it, the more you'll get out. If you provide advanced information of climate, context, goals, plot features, as well as lots of images of where things are now and references things you might want to do, you can really cover a lot of ground. A great way to do this would be to start a thread in an appropriate forum to begin collecting this information to share during your consult.
Another thing to mention is that Paul likes to ask people if they'd be willing to do these sessions live for the public so that they can benefit everyone. That is voluntary, and up to you. Just throwing it out there for you to think about while we get the ball rolling.
Excited for your consult!
