Here you go, Vermont is pretty cold in the winter. When you think outside of the conventional box anything in nature is possible.

Wow! Been busy and havent checked my thread in awhile, what a surprise! Nice to see such dialogue and more fellow Great Basin Permies. Thank you all for your responses and ideas. Since I posted the original post I've been to two Steppe One Farm tours and most of what you guys are suggesting is right on. Anyone else catch the FREE Geoff Lawton seminar?

Okay! Awesome, thank you so much!

No luck. Must have been lost. I will look for some kind of proof, otherwise I'll just buy another deck while the wife isn't looking!

Uh oh, I'll have to check. Maybe in a spam or junk folder, hopefully not lost for good. I was really excited for the cards, the style of artwork is really cool! I'll take a look for the email. Thanks!

Hey Paul,
When you first came out with the playing card kickstarter I gave a $20 donation. Was that supposed to get me a deck or did i have to donate more?

Kathleen, keep me posted. Ive been curious about that method.

Thanks Derrick! Nice to hear from fellow Great Basin Permies. I would love to grow as many food producing n-fixers as possible. Your not related to Dave Gunther by any chance?

Thanks Andrew, great resources. I am located just north of Reno, NV. No water rights. Anyone know if comfrey would grow here?

Wow, thank you both! I am very excited to get something going and your recommendations will go a long way. I've actually started saving locust seeds, great for timber as well! can't wait to update!
