CURRENT MISSION

To find the old and the beautiful things in this world, the old ways that still work and remember them for the future

ABOUT ME

Im Shy. Sometimes loud about it, other times not so much. I prefer good people to a lot of people, and like places where people can talk to each other. Im an auful Speller, with out spell check, like now, im hopeless.
I like to design and craft. I like simple, well made things and I like to know how they were made and how to maintain them. I like cast iron pans alot, all they nead is life around them, if they are used, they will last almost forever.

PHILOSOPHY

That we and the world around us are together, this relationship can be anything, positive or negitive, but it exists, and its more powerful than we often think

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to be able to show anyone how to grow more of their own food, tell them what they could plant to weave baskets or dye cloths. show them how to make a fort in an overgrown heage that seems a world away from the city. Im on my way, but for now im mostly asorbing the world, the ways things are, the way we all live.

I can help you find a good stone for sharpening your knives, or show you how to just use a coffee cup. Ive helped people repair their leather bags. I would love to talk about permiculture, urban food, and building comunity.

I would like to learn how to be comfortable in all sorts of situations, particularly wilderness and Kitchens
