Welcome Hal!!! Great to have you on board.

If you (or anyone else reading this) have a bit of time to spare, please drop links to some favorite threads you'd like to see featured in the dailyish into a PM to me. It's a small thing, but very helpful!

Welcome Hal!

A volunteer named Hal came to play,
On Permies, she's brightening each day.
She'll moderate threads,
Award apples, and spread
Good vibes in the tomato-y way!



Can you share a few words to let us know your interests and joys?

Thanks, all! Excited to be here.

I first got interested in permaculture back in high school but put off doing anything about it until I got my own property about three years ago. Last spring I started doing the SkIP program and that has been great for helping me come up with projects to (slowly) help me set up some food systems. It's been a lot of fun and I've been able to enjoy the fruits of my labors almost immediately. I'm not great at gardening yet but I love to cook and take care of animals (and that's what most of my days consist of).
