Hello all!
I have been listening to Paul’s podcasts, reading some of Paul’s articles and a few discussions on permies.com, but this is my first post.
This year I started my first garden – a 4’ x 8’
raised bed – which has not done very well. During my
gardening research I discovered a term called “permaculture” which I initially brushed off. Then ran into it again, found
Geoff Lawton videos, Paul’s articles and podcasts and now I’m hooked and hungry for more. I am still pretty low on Paul’s
eco scale and still incredibly new to
permaculture or even just gardening. But
permaculture is the prick of truth and breath of fresh air that I desperately needed and I want to learn more and do more.
I am 31 years old. I currently live in Florida, but come from Wisconsin. I am involved with Civil Engineering and frequently have to deal with various “departments of making you sad” as Paul puts it and I try to make them happy. But I’d rather not talk too much of that since I am still entrenched in the corporate world.
And I just wanted to introduce myself and say hello.
