Hi there! My name is Evan, and I just wanted to introduce myself to everyone before I start posting anywhere else on these forums. I don't remember exactly when I first found this site, probably many years ago when I was looking for some good information on alternative building, rocket stoves, and
permaculture, of course! I've been aware of it for a while, just never signed up or engaged in the forums, though I have listened to many of Paul's videos and podcasts, and have read a few threads here and there.
Personally, I've been utilizing various
permaculture practices in my own
gardening efforts for the last decade or so, and plan to build both a
rocket mass heater and a wofati sometime in the near future (hopefully). I've been experimenting alone for a very long time, and would like to get more involved in some like-minded folks, either online or IRL...or ideally, both! I really love the LIC idea that Paul brought up in a podcast I listened to recently.
I'm a father and husband, artist, musician, vineyard keeper, beer brewer, web designer, and podcaster...and I'm sure I'll share all sorts of links to things I've been part of, created, and/or had some sort of interest in over the years, as I get to know you all here. I've lived in the Midwest most of my life and really want to do more with homesteading,
permaculture gardening, wild foraging, mycology,
food preservation/fermentation, natural building, and eventually
beekeeping and animal husbandry.
Nice to "meet" you all!
