What is your Permaculture Superpower...please share

Hey There,

I have a great imagination but can't wrap my head around how many Permie Superpowers are out there!

I am super efficient, a "(jack) jill of all trades" and way too curious.  I feel these superpowers are helping me
in every aspect of my life...especially Permaculture!

Please share with me what you feel are your superpower(s) and how they can be applied to your
Permaculture Journey.

I feed insects and wildlife.

I discovered a fruit tree started from seed that iguanas leave alone - Mango - until it flowers maybe

That's cool!  We need to be more in tune with nature.  Sounds like you have an advantage there!  You can instruct others.

When I'm baking and my husband walks in the door and comments that it smells good, I jokingly reply, "I bake. What's your superpower?" As for how it helps with permaculture, my curiosity + joy from baking mean I get inspiration from things that I grow. Lemon balm bread, lime basil cookies, rosemary candied walnuts, maple rutabaga muffins, etc.

Impressive!  Many wouldn't even recognize a Mango tree!  I would with Google's help.  lol

Phenomenal superpower!  It's amazing how you are stacking functions...baking using your garden harvest, creativity from your plants, and your curiosity and joy!  I love your combinations!   I'd have never thought of those pairings they sound wonderful.  I'm a struggling cook as it is not intuitive to me.  My boy says he took up Survivalism to cope with my cooking.  lol

Ha! That sounds like my husband. He lost something like 30 pounds when we got married. He was trying to lose weight, but the joke was always about my (lack of) cooking skills. I love to bake. I cook simply because my family expects to eat, and those skills are still a work in progress.
