I had a nice gift in my inbox yesterday.  I got a look at two of the cards that are now finished.  I'm not a word smith, so help out if you want, my best may be to call them awe-inspiring.  I can see masses of Permies marching out giving out the purple playing cards to everyone.  Ah what a vision!

As I told a neighbor after giving him a copy of Paul's saving the world book and a deck of cards, "I'm going to break your head open from the inside out"  A few days later he told me you just might do that!!

Peace

In the first deck of permaculture playing cards, the one-eyed jacks were depicted with Egyptian eyes . We are figuring out some options for the purple deck! Help us choose or give us more ideas by voting in the poor man's poll ahead. Give thumbs up to your favorites! Vote as many times as you like.

i'm paul wheaton and this is my 16th kickstarter.

when you are bonkers about permaculture, you might seem a bit crazy to friends and family.  

12 years ago we came out with a deck of permaculture playing cards.  The idea was to give decks to people, as gifts, so you seem less crazy. It worked so well, people asked for another deck!  We slowly put together a list of more than 100 card ideas, took the best, and we now present "the purple deck!"

The magic is that you give a deck of cards to somebody that thinks you are crazy.  They open the deck and look at two cards, giving each of the two cards seven seconds of their time.  We hope to hook them into permaculuture in two cards!

Is there enough interest in these cards to get them printed?



Now recorded.  I hope to see a first draft of a video from andres soon!

I don't have a preference for any of the One-eyed Jacks.

If you can swing the License, I would vote for the Minion version.
