Maybe you have a kid that's graduating this year from high school and wants to learn low tech things, and how to build with non toxic and readily available materials? And learn how to be more self sufficient.

What a great graduation present a ticket to PTJ would make!

Should there be a gardening track in the PTJ?

Eliot Mason will be working on the humus well this summer at the permaculture technology jamboree.

Did you know you can gather and store the year's precipitation underground and use it all summer?

Sepp Holzer has shown us with his work what can happen if you take this idea to the max.   He has abundant water all summer even though the surrounding areas tend to dry up.



This is a simple technique you can learn and take home to to heal the land wherever you are.

Paul, Does Wheaton Labs have a large seed store or do you need more organic seeds for a Gardening Track?
