How great that was to have what sounded like thunder in the background when the almighty was introduced! 😁

I have Oyster mushrooms naturalized on my property. I know they are quite competitive. What can I do to allow them to proliferate, yet be able to propagate other species?

There are a number of different natural methods. I found a link that has quite a few more methods than I had previously heard about. Just remember that ants out in a field in not too large of numbers greatly benefit the soil. http://www.mnn.com/your-home/at-home/blogs/13-natural-remedies-for-the-ant-invasion

Hello, fellow Helena-area permies! I am interested in meeting/communicating with any of you for the purposes of learning and support. I am minutes outside Helena on nearly 13 acres, which are begging to be utilized in a sustainable fashion. I would love to have the place running to a point of being able to help train and sustain lower income folks to help them become more self-sufficient and healthy. Long term, would like to host training for gardening, food preservation, nutrition and maybe even cob-house building. I am new to permaculture, but quite committed to the concept.
