I read an article about the SKIP program in Mother Earth News Magazine last spring.

Someone announced it at a meeting I was at, don’t remember where, but a big crowd of people, over 15 years ago.  I now post the link now and then in our farm newsletter which goes out to over 400 people worldwide.  All to get the word out and reach more people to save the planet!

How did you find us? 



I found Permies by doing something I thought I'd never do.  I asked A.I. for an active, friendly Off-grid and Homesteading forum.  The first one I tried wasn't friendly at all.  I was attacked in my Introduction post and followed for two days after that, being harassed.  I left.

I checked out some of the other websites but they weren't active at all.  After going down the list, I finally checked out Permies and haven't looked back.  This site is most of what I was hoping to find in a forum and I'm grateful.  That's why I'm responding to this 15 year old post!
