I admit to being one of those people who gets rid of it, if there is even a little mold. As my journey progresses, however, I have moved away from simply throwing it away... to feeding it to the chickens or the compost pile instead.

nevermind

If you have already started telling me something, then it is impossible for me to never mind because I already started minding... I can however stop minding

Refills now available!

Do you have one of our awesome glass bottles and want to refill it with the best dried herbs and spices around? Do you have your own bottle and want to fill it with the best dried herbs and spices? We have just made it that much easier! Check out our website https://themaineingredient.com and you will find an option on each product to select a refill pouch instead of a glass bottle. And to put the cherry on top... these pouches are made completely from biodegradable and compostable materials.

Those are some great questions. I particularly like the "what do you like to make?" one. Very open ended with all sorts of possibilities.
What do you think about chiropractors?

or maybe also add what do you think about naturopathic doctors?

I feel like that can tell you a lot about their philosophies of health and healthcare and could lead into conversations about diet and medicine.
What holidays do you celebrate?

I think this shows what is important to the person, can give you a 30,000 foot view of their politics and religion and habits all in one.
Question
What single question could you ask someone to learn the most amount of information about things you care about without it sounding like an interrogation?

Half game, half serious. As I find myself single again and contemplating whether or not I wish to begin dating again... I also find myself wishing to learn a lot about a person in a short period of time. Give me some help here. What are your key questions that are still casual?
As Tereza already mentioned, a Zoom call will require internet access, but will not count towards minutes of phone calls. I believe Facetime is the same way, but I am an android user and am not as familiar with Apple products.

Welcome to Permies!

I am envious of your 16 acres :) Have lots of fun transforming it. Just keep in mind that if you do too much all at once, it can become overwhelming and take some of the joy out of gardening. So as excited as you are... I humbly suggest to do lots, but not too much.
