Ready for Ginger's Permaculture Class

Here on Einstein Island, there is plenty of rain and plenty of mud. After a year of slogging around in the muck, I finally decided it was time to invest in some when-in-rome-looking farm/rain boots.

I'm registered for the Introduction to Permaculture Class at R-Evolution Gardens, a CSA here on the Island, this weekend, so I had to be ready to suit up. There's no guarantee it'll be dry for a hot second.

I headed over to one of the most greatest shops of awesomeness known to Einstein Island, Hal's Emporium.  I got these suckers for $19.99. Scoot over there for the last couple of pairs they have on hand.

There's even a tab on the back for slipping these slippery suckaz off before heading into your Fairy Cottage, yurt, or other humbode (humble abode).

Oh, fer cutes. I am so totally ready to learn how to be muddy.

Nordstrom sells something not nearly as recession chic for $125.

For more information on R-Evolution Garden's class that I'm getting all up into this weekend, see here.

Saturday April 9th: noon-4pm 
Introduction to Coastal Permaculture   

These last weeks have been challenging.  Massive earthquakes, nuclear meltdowns, political chaos and rising fuel costs. It can be a hard time to ponder the future and feel hopeful in the face of so much uncertainty.  That's why we are feel it is the right time to be offering a permaculture class for our community this coming Saturday, April 9th.  Permaculture- which is a word coined in the late 70's combining the ideas of perma, "permanent or sustainable"  with culture-  more specifically "agriculture." 

I don't know if there are any more spots in the class, but times are getting challenging. If you're in Portland, join us for a weekend on Einstein Island and learn a thing or two about how amazing you are and how important your happiness is to your own Fantasy I-Land.

Hope to see you this weekend!
