Hi! Thanks for the link to skip and pep. I am in summit county and go to Denver (cheesman park) often to teach tennis (south ridge park) and piano (lakeside library) and my son goes to school in wheat ridge when he isn't remote learning. When we live there we live in a skoolie. Saving money for land, ya know.
New to the forum, less new to Denver. Apartment-dweller near the 25-225 wye. Up for talking shop, sharing ideas, and learning new things. Probably up for kibitzing about the state of the gardens, too.
Hi Ash!
I'm Gabi, a young permaculture-hopeful who grew up on a sustainable farm in the Midwest. My dream is to return to the Midwest and purchase my own land before I turn 30, in the meantime, I'm working and saving up money for that dream, which landed me in Denver. I've got tons of experience with farming and have been growing plants on my patio! I would love to meet some like minded people.
Good luck with your growing!
Growing up on a sustainable farm seems like it'd give you a big leg up. We should see if we can get all the near-Denver folks together to swap seeds or something.
I would definitely be interested. When I lived in Detroit, we had a permaculture group that was pretty active and we did a lot of cool activities/learning sessions. Do you know if there's anything like that in Denver, and if not, I'd be happy to help begin one!
There's a permaculture guild in Denver and Boulder, but I've yet to pay them a visit.
I like the idea of banding together for visits, garden tours, and watching sepp holzer videos (and others, of course). When I get something figured out, I'll make a new thread, but add a link to it here.
The family and I are considering a relocation to Colorado from central Texas, so thought I'd hang out here a while and hear what everyone else is doing.

It wasn't my idea to go to some crazy nightclub in the middle of nowhere. I just wanted to stay home and cuddle with this tiny ad:
