Welcome, let your roots extend deep and your flowers open brightly!

Ah you're gardeners not flowers... ahem.

Welcome, let your hoes dig deep and your watering pails never fail!

Ah you're permies... ahem.

Welcome, let your hugelkulturs never erode and your sunroots produce prosperously.

Ha! I didn't realize how traditional I am with some clothing until I saw this image. I have a couple of pairs like #10.

I went looking on Google images for "types of overalls" and the top 8 images all came on one meme. I thought to myself "There isn't much variety there....but I don't want to really make my own graphic. I'll just find some guys in overalls and call it good." There were far more....non-useful...overalls on google images. Maybe I should have said, "Or post a picture of what overall you'd want"

Congrats to the new Title.

More staff means more personal permie answers and advises and as more answers come as more people will join.

Good to see the boost in permies.

Hi All;
Welcome to the Permies Family!  
Take your time learning, remember we are all volunteers.
Do as little or as much as you feel comfortable doing.  
We all have our home life and things must be ship shape there before we help keep things in order on Permies!
No worries, as it all gets done even if you can't help that moment/day/week/even month!
If you're not sure??? Ask!  We all are here to help keep Permies the happy fun place to share and learn that it is.
Have fun throwing apples, and just learning cool stuff!
Just remember... never cross the family!

I'm afraid all those overalls are
    a) far too clean,
and
    b) don't cover enough
I need long sleeves as well as long legs on mine when I'm working.
But, since we're in a virtual world here, I think #5 look comfy, and I don't need to worry about them getting dirty online.....
