I love the first picture you posted. Looks like a great piece of property. Good luck finding people to invest with

My vote is for the Skagit county in the foothills. I think it’s not as rainy as Index but it’s gorgeous up there and lots of sun. Fairly cheap pricing I think

Hi Bri, I have some property that I would like to turn into a sustainable farm. Let me know if you’re interested and we can talk about the details. It’s in NW WA in skagit county up hwy 20 in marblemount. There’s a well, and a bunch of sun. Already has fruit trees and stuff and there’s a house on the property. Have a nice day

It’s up hwy 20 in marblemount and you’re correct, it’s just amazing up there. I was born over on the Olympic peninsula and moved away as a kid and it felt like coming home being up there. Just love it. Its close to the Skagit and the Cascade rivers so lots of fishing opportunities close by

So a few years ago, my wife and I purchased about 8 acres in NW Washington at the foot of the cascades with the intention of living there and practicing permaculture and possibly doing a market garden or something to make money. Since then, things have changed here in CA and we were unable to go live there.
       I’m kinda kicking around the idea of having a partner who would be willing to live on the property and run some type of farming business. Looking for someone who has experience running a farm type business and has gone through their the PDC course. I’m hoping they have some money to go with mine, to put into it and we can build it together and have them run it with little interference from myself.
         There’s a farmhouse on the property that I gutted and am needing to get up there to remodel, so some experience in building would be good too.          
        They could live there free of rent as long as we can get something going and we can both be making some money.
      If you are looking for this type of opportunity or you may know someone else that is, hit me up and we can discuss it further.
       The long term plan I’ve got for that house is to move into it in about 20-30 years when I’m of retirement age so there’s a long time left before that happens.

Here's some info on horsetail. Lots of other
biodynamic info too

The best thing to do if bitten by a tick is to keep the tick and send it in to a Lyme testing center you can find by searching google. My wife's got Lyme. Wish we knew to test the tick. Lyme infected ticks  don't always have a ring around the bite area and the tests in people are a little sketchy unless you really have chronic Lyme. That's why it's best to test the tick.

The hairs on the roots take nutrients from the fungi. The fungi get nutrients from breaking down rocks and dead plant material

For anybody else that reads this, if you get a tick bite, just keep the tick and send it in for testing. There's multiple labs that test. Quick google search shows its $50 at one place. I've heard it's a more accurate way to tell than a Lyme test for humans. The Lyme is elusive and will give false negatives a lot. Also the red ring isn't sure fire way to go since there isn't always a bulls eye. This is just advice I wish I heard years ago. Would have saved us a lot of trouble
