Phoenix Permaculture Guild

Join us in creating a more sustainable Phoenix!

. . . all of you in this guild. Michael and I are enjoying the different classes and tours and it's been a joy to begin to meet some of you face to face and here your stories.

The education we're gaining is priceless but even more so the connection to people who are like minded and willing to share what they've learned along this path.

With great appreciation - Michael and Lylah

Hi Lylah,
My friend Jennifer and I met you and your husband at the home tour in North Scottsdale a few weeks ago. We visited for quite a while in the front before the tour started. I am also appreciative of the wonderful community of people who share of themselves with support, knowledge and friendship.
May your holiday season be filled with light!
Kristi

Yes! I remember and if the rest of my memory serves me...we forgot to let you know where the Discount Tire company was?

I have not met many of you because I am always so busy with school, work and kids. But I am so very grateful every time I do get the privilege to meet someone involved in the guild. I am from Oregon and often feel out of place here in NE Phoenix. The people I am surrounded by with my kids activities and with our Limousine service are usually not like minded.

When I found this community of people I felt right at home just to hear stories and see the beautiful pictures. In my 12 years in Phoenix I finally found 'my people'.

Thanks so much!

Lylah - likewise to you and Michael - I feel connected through our tweets and on this site - one day we will meet in a class! Another hands-on Herb Planting class is coming in 2010!

Happy holidays and a peace-filled new year to all.

Doreen

If you can find their hole, squeeze some lemon juice into it. This has worked for me in the past. Sit and observe where the little guys are coming and going. Eventually, this will bring you to their hole. It seems to me that the ants are not workin…
