Basically anytime someone asks “where can I find off grid singles” the interwebz sends them here. That’s how I discovered permies and why I don’t have much posting history. I’ve been learning a lot through the different forums but feel too novice to contribute to the conversations. It’s hugely educational for me though. The singles forum was just what got me
in the door and I’m sure in time I will have great contributions to share but it can be intimidating for someone with less experience than all these permaculture gods and goddesses out here sharing all the cool things that are so fun for me to be exposing myself to. It’s a whole new world and I feel like that’s a mission everyone here shares- community and converting people to a better way of life and the singles forum is a great introduction
Don't be shy in asking questions on any topic that interests you in any of the forums. I'd suggest reading up on the 'Wheaton Eco Scale' here- any questions that help everyone understand better what it takes to encourage people moving from "level 1" to "level 2" (or even 0 to 1) would be pretty central to the 'mission' of this site...

Maybe only people with 3 apples or more should be able to advertise. The only way to be sure you're dealing with a permaculture minded person is when they're appreciated by fellow Permies.
