I know that as an Otis, you can create your own program and adapt the necessary skills to your specific conditions and climate. How would you go about creating a PEX? My climate differs significantly from Montana, and although there are some overlapping elements, many aspects are unique to my location.

Here is a little video that helps to explain what the SKIP program is. Maybe we should show it at the beginning of the live:

Someone was puzzling over all the acronyms. Is there a glossary somewhere that can help?

Many people who might be interested in this only have apartments or rentals. Is this event helpful to people who don't have any of their own land?

We can ask Paul about the Permaculture Experience for Anywhere, or PEA. These skills address those in smaller spaces.

Awesome!  I look forward to catching it when I have time again!
 
Or we might never have existed at all. Freaky. So we should cherish everything. Even this tiny ad:
