Two nice units up for rent on a permaculture site. I would love tenants who want to garden, raise chickens, sheep, whatever...

Hi Igrid, lovely to meet you. I will be back to my six acre homestead hopefully sometime this year and would love to meet you. Send me a PM and we can exchange contact information. Would love to collaborate on projects.

Hey Permies!

I hope this is the right thread to post in.

So, I have access to an unlimited supply of sawdust from a local sawmill. I mean, many, many dump-truck loads of the stuff for my six acre property, delivered on sight for free. I wanted to discuss possible uses with you and get help coming up with some business plans. Any other ideas?

• Targeted weed suppressant + soil building.
• Chicken coop bedding + insulation.
• Black soldier fly larvae bedding.
• Compost material with organic waste from local restaurants.
• Biochar business: would need to purchase and appropriate sized biochar kiln for it. Can anyone recommend a good home-unit?
• Jean Paine compost and hot water heater.

Thanks!

Paul might be right about that. I did swale lines on my property but I haven't lived on it yet to watch how it works. I plan to do keyline rips on contour, crimping and/or rotational grazing.

This unit lies in a serene valley in Huson, Montana with only two neighbors in sight, having direct, easy access to interstate 90. The 23 minute commute to Missoula is on a clean stretch of four lane highway with a broad median. Live among wild elk, turkeys, and spring wildflowers on a six acre homestead with access to gardening, chickens, sheep, and various perennial fruit and nut shrubs and trees. The property is shared with a single tenant in another unit. Landlord is a friendly permaculture designer who is away earning hours for his doctorate. All kinds of permaculture opportunities!

Utilities paid by landlord. $2,500 monthly with 12 month lease.

Landlord seeks responsible, stable tenants with good communication skills. No partiers. Landlord requests proof of income and 2-3 references, especially rental references.

PM me. Thanks!

Had a difficult conversation with ChatGPT today running some numbers, since this kind of math is difficult for me. Obviously, there are some missing factors here demanding a more robust audit. For example, this assumes we are not already composting any percentage of global human feces, which must be factored in. However, it's a starting point for further research. Annual composting of human wastes can offset anthropogenic CO2 loads in the atmosphere, at an annual rate of 4.6%, in only 64 years.

I'd be curious if anyone could run the numbers better.

All amenities are in unit. Utilities are paid by landlord. Optional: mostly furnished. Optional: some work/trade.
