Hello all ,
I’m new here at Wheaton Labs & just finished my first full week in the bootcamp. I want to start sharing my experience while here for anyone interested. Everyone here has been very knowledgeable and super helpful and patient giving instruction. Days are full working on various projects with plenty of coaching and feedback. I’m enjoying my time here and have quite a bit to learn to meet my goals. Things I learned this week….
How to:
Safely use a chainsaw & axe
Split & stack wood correctly
Build a fire
Fell, de-limb, & strip a tree
Build junk pole fence
Use rocket stove
I’m expecting to stay for a good while and hope to strengthen my permaculture knowledge & experience with yalls support.

Switching from electric heat to a rocket mass heater reduces your carbon footprint as much as parking 7 cars
