Here's an overview of what it is.
Basically, it's a simple dress made for ease of movement that one wears around the house. It's easily washable, comfortable, and the only thing stopping it from being PJs is that it's a dress and we don't have to deal with the embarrassing moment when unexpected people arrive at the front door for a visit.
This would probably be easier than training my geese to attack unscheduled guests.
It would also solve my issue of filming youtube videos in my housecoat or dirty farm clothes.
So basically I want to learn all about house dresses, how do I get one, how do I make one, and is there also a version for when I don't want to put on the heat - like a housecoat but fancy looking?

And I want to start a permaculture farmstead. Looking at land prices makes you consider selling a kidney or bank robbery. Since bank robbery is illegal if you get Caught I've had to look for cheaper land. Then I found the southwest. $500 an acre all day long. Then I looked at what permaculture has done in these dry almost barren Environments. And iam amazed! The work of Allen Savory, Geoff Lawton and others. So now I ask for your wisdom. Those of you who practice permaculture in dry environments, those of you who have used Allen Savory's methods with results. And just anyone with valuable wisdom that I could possibly benefit from! And any good books to read on dry climate permaculture/regenerative agriculture. Thanks
To clarify I have no experience in a dry climate. I live in Mississippi, it's hot, wet, and humid here. Pictures of the kind of land iam looking at.
