Gardening playing cards for gardeners and homesteaders Kickstarter

In the deck of playing cards, you will get the Solar Food Dehydrator card




Here is a video with a lot more detail on this concept.  Enjoy!

This is Paul Wheaton's 16th Kickstarter!

When you’re bonkers about permaculture, you might seem a bit crazy to your friends and family.

Twelve years ago, we came out with a deck of Permaculture Playing Cards.
The idea was simple: give these decks to people as gifts so you seem a little less crazy.

And it worked.

People loved them so much that they kept asking for another deck.
So we started a long list of ideas, over a hundred in total, and chose the best ones to bring you something new:
the Purple Deck.


Why It Works

Here’s the magic: You hand someone a deck, maybe that cousin who thinks you’ve lost it because of your bizarre gardening techniques. They open it up, pull out two random cards, and spend about seven seconds looking at each.

That’s all it takes. Two cards. Fourteen seconds. And suddenly, they’re hooked on permaculture.

Each card is designed to spark curiosity and share one fascinating slice of the gardening, homesteading and permaculture world, from rocket cooktops to willow feeders, from forage gardening to cleaners you can eat.

taking down thread boost.

Thanks everybody!

Thank you everyone!!

that's it.

I think the cards are amazing.  I wish this was our all time best supported kickstarter.  But I guess this is what happens when you piss off big-something.  Today I was told that it is a badge of honor to piss off big-somethings.

This is an average of $77 + change per backer.  And about 23,000 more than what was asked for to fund the project!  Permies everywhere are awesome people!  I want to congratulate and thank everyone who contributed.  

Now to see how many high school ( and maybe Jr high schools) agricultural programs will accept my challenge to make some of these principles part of their curriculum! I have easy access to WV, KY, and OH!

Time to start calling around to find the programs!
