I just over winter animals in the area that I want to garden.  I have to over winter them somewhere and in the spring I can plant whatever I want.  It works really well for me and there is no extra work.  

I think you could make little bags out of wool.   They could be knitted or felted.  There is usually lots of wool discarded around shearing time.   I made lots of garden twine out of wool that would have otherwise beed used as mulch and let to degrade.  

Hello Andrew!  

I am so glad you had such a good time at Wheaton Labs.  I find it rejuvenating there too!   There is something so special about being part of the permaculture experiments and lifestyle there!


I have lots of bitterroot where I live.  They are a beautiful pink flower in early spring and are pretty much invisible in summer.  I will bring some out to Wheaton Labs and try to get them started.  

John Bush and our friends at Live Free Academy are hosting this one live online, and opening it up to everyone... completely free:




Five hours of strategy from people who are already living it. Crypto, legal sovereignty, regenerative land, and income outside the system.

Including:
How to use cryptocurrency for private, uncensorable transactions that no bank or payment processor can freeze.
Legal frameworks, trusts, PMAs, and the equity principles behind them, that people are using right now to reduce regulatory reach over their own lives.
Regenerative agriculture strategies for growing serious amounts of food on your own land, straight from people who are already doing it at scale.
Alternative income streams for building real wealth completely outside the conventional banking system.



Speakers:
Ryland Engelhart (co-founder, Kiss the Ground) on regenerating soil whether you've got 200 acres or a balcony.
Matt Powers (author, Regenerative Soil) on the science of living soil, including an 18-day compost method that beats most commercial fertilizer.
Plus Jeremy Cordon (Goldback) on spending real gold like money, Jason Crowe (Qortal) on decentralized internet, Sal the Agorist on private crypto, Michael Joseph (Sacred Honor Educational Fellowship) on legal sovereignty, Reya Manna on avoiding burnout as a freedom builder, and Prezence on passive income from property you don't own.

Every one of these speakers will also be here in person at Exit & Build 6, the in-person event this November 5-8 at Mollie's Sovereignty Ranch in Bandera, Texas, this whole summit series is building toward the live event.

We would love to have you join us!

I'm pretty certain going one man army on my land is futile and sharing my electrical and other skills would be one way of providing value to something I want to see in this world - a better foundation for future boots.

Hello Daniel!

Yes we have openings!   We bring in new people to the permaculture bootcamp on the first Sunday of every month.  It would be great to have you out here!

I don't know if I or anyone has record of me sending in money to rent a cabin back when you had a deal when your neck was injured. I don't care about the rental, I just want to know if I have to hunt down another $100 to pay my bootcamp fee. If you need the Paypal address used I can get that and pm it.

Hello Daniel!

We can look into this.  You can email me at wheatonlabs@gmail.com with the email address you used and the approximate date.  We will get you sorted out!

Thanks

Hello Brande!

I hope you find a better situation soon.

What region are you in?

I have found free and close to free camping at some camp grounds.   A community would be really great.  

Maybe post this in the region where you are looking.

Hello L!

Wheaton Labs in Montana is pretty warm this time of year.   We are nestled in the mountains outside Missoula.

We have lots of options and ways to be here.  You can rent one of our lovely cabins or join the permaculture bootcamp and learn the skills to build your own dream cottage on one of our raw acres of woodland and meadows.
