Indiana Permies where are you?

Thank you for the great information!

We are buying our perma farm this fall, and we too are moving from Alaska.

Any tips on fall planting and quick set ups? Excited to get started.

Herbal Syrups and Smudges for Respiratory Health

Saturday, September 19, 2020 at 2 PM – 5 PM

Burdock House welcomes community herbalist Greg Monzel from Wild
Persimmon School of Wellness for an afternoon of plant medicine.
Following introductions, we begin with a weeds walk and gathering
herbs. Greg demonstrates making an herbal-infused syrup with local
honey, which everyone gets to take home. We then wrap and tie bundles
of red cedar for smudging, and all along the way we share ancient and
contemporary natural remedies to promote respiratory health. This
outdoor workshop is mask-optional with social distancing enforced;
snacks, refreshments, and restrooms are available.

Greg Monzel is a community herbalist and forager with a gift for
nourishing deep connections between people and plants. He has been a
practicing herbalist, medicine maker and grower since 2008. Greg
co-founded Wild Persimmon School of Wellness, an Indianapolis-based
herb school and yoga studio, and is a pathways instructor at White
Pine Wilderness Academy in herbalism, foraging, and plant
identification (East Pathway).

Cost is $30/person, if paid by the end of the day of Saturday
September 12. Cost is $35 after that date. Cost includes smudge and
syrup for each participant to take home. In the case of storms, we
will cancel and issue refunds.

Hi All. I'm just south of Fort Wayne, Indiana. I was raised on a small farm in Michigan. We raised chickens and pigs. Also had a big garden. Looking  to get back to my roots and become more self sustaining. I am a single 58 year young female with a small dog.

Hi all,Megan here.
Just moved to Indianapolis, IN. I’m new to growing in this climate. Moved from 7B-8.
I’m curious if Paw Paw will grow here?
I’m looking for free or inexpensive resources … wood chips, other mulch, and compost. I’m working on a tight budget. I like to barter
I’m looking forward to getting to know everyone!

Hi Indiana Permies,

I see the last post is about 3 years ago so I don't know whether anyone still checks this site.  But I have a request.

If anyone sees this who understands growing and preparing food in the permaculture way, and who would be willing to make about 30-50 meal boxes on June 1, 2023 for delivery to a charter busload in Indianapolis IN, please contact me.

I will be organizing a charter bus expedition from Columbus OH through Indianapolis and Terre Haute to St. Louis, then to the Okie Homesteading Expo in Pryor OK.  My family attended last year's inaugural event and had a great time!  This year they are expanding to two days and I want to take some Midwestern permaculture enthusiasts there!  

I need to feed the people quality home-grown food instead of relying on fast food.  I will pay per meal prepared, boxed, and delivered as we come through for our Indianapolis pickup of passengers at 12:30 pm.  

The pick-up point will be on I-465 on the southern side of Indy.   Can anybody do this meal?  

There will be a second meal needed on the way back, Sunday, June 4 at 12:00 noon, by either the same person or another.

My name is Gramps McGrumpus and you can contact me at GrampsMcGrumpus@gmail.com.  (I just opened that account for this project so you will probably be among the first to post there.  It will grow considerably between now and June.)

Gramps  

Let me know, also, if you want to consider being a passenger!  I'll send details for your information.  

Hi Megan,
Just saw your post.  Yes, pawpaw grows here and in fact the neighborhoodplantingproject.org distributes them and other native fruit trees for free across the state.  Good luck!
