Land / Sepp Holzer to teach in the PNW
« on: February 16, 2009, 11:26:49 AM »
Though not rewilding per se, Sepp Holzer's work is a revolutionary example of how to live in harmony with natural systems. His site in Austria has won international acclaim through it's abundant food forests that self-maintain, not needing irrigation, fertilizer, or many expensive outside inputs.
How can humans live lightly on the Earth?
Holzer is one of the world's best living examples.

Rewild Camps, Events & Meet-ups / Re: Primitive Skills and Permaculture Meetup
« on: January 12, 2009, 06:24:08 PM »
I just got an email that the local Food Not Bombs folks will come to feed us!
They're going to be busy cooking for the first part of the skillshare and then show up with "Possibly
just some Mighty-O doughnuts, bread, and a type of soup."
Thank you Food Not Bombs! You guys are so awesome!

Kelda: guerilla grafting
Jason: fire-starting
Morgan: making bike panniers from buckets
A request from Dan:I am curious about clothing fabrication... especially shoes...
Some thoughts from Steve:
*Whole tree architecture - I am curious about how local native indians may have started out designing a long house. My theory is that maybe if a tree fell in a storm and it ended up proped up at one end all you would have to do is lay some rafter of small poles, some cedar bark roofing and wolla!
*Learn about how to identify and cultivate wild edible plants, much like I am told that native americans did with camas.
*mushroom identification
*staying warm in a winter climate - ie: burning things, having a bed partner, fur clothing etc....
*food preservation - drying, pickleing - not sure what would be considered primitive, although "living food on the hoof" sounds like the natural way to preserve meat.

I'm Kelda and I live in Puyallup, er, Pierce County, WA. I'm a permaculture enthusiast and sometimes teacher. I garden & gather food wherever I go, but have not learned much about primitive skills, per se.
I'm always trying to learn something new each week, so I'll get around to much of it eventually.
My idols are Heidi Bohan and Carrie Little.
