Hi! 👋 I just joined, and while I figure this out, let me tell you a bit about me.

I'm a maker of dolls inspired by nature, folklore, labyrints of myth, mind and magic. My dolls are mostly witches, and when they leave my home, they often become altar dolls. It's been a weird and interesting journey of doll making for the past 7 years, 600+ dolls now live in homes and collections around the world.

Besides crafting dolls I'm into permaculture, paganism, self-sufficiency, foraging and neverending self-development. I'm a forest dweller, mushroom hunter, food grower and herb lover deep in the countryside in Latvia (North-Eastern Europe). All of that I might occasionally share here. I would love to connect with like-minded people, so, if you're here, say 'hi'! I hope you are somewhere here...

Our first newsletter was sent to subscribers today, with many more to come, including technical guides on greywater reuse, earthworks, preparation for climate shifts, and many other musings from our arid land.

Quarterly Updates: The Rebirth of Spring

Greetings from the Holy Mojave in its period of yearly renewal: as heat returns to us with the return of the Sun to the Northern hemisphere, so, too, does life begin its frantic rush to living before the heat slows it temporarily. We experienced the Spring Equinox on March 20th, and so return and rebirth are on our minds.
We believe that humans are a keystone species, and that our role is the careful stewardship of the ecosystems we a a part of. This belief underpins our philosophy and intention, and serves as the basis for the work of sowing seeds and routing water, allocating resources to plants and animals that serve the land as we do.
This is our first release of a continuous series of quarterly updates aligning with our Wheel of the Year observances and so we will, just this once, start from the beginning. We hope each quarterly update reminds you how capable you are to make the changes you wish to see in your own community, your own landbase.

Tree cutters and wood workers have to pay to dispose of this stuff so you’re doing them a favor to take it off their hands.

My husband found out about ChipDrop a few years back. Get a bunch of free mulch delivered to you for free, straight from tree cutters.

And lastly, you can make free #compost by asking a coffee shop to save their used grounds and combine with free untreated sawdust. It’s the only reason I go to Starbucks lol.

A Community Event Hosted by Santa Barbara Permaculture Network sbpermaculture.org/
sbpermaculture.org/events.html

Santa Barbara Permaculture Network celebrates its 5th Annual Eco Hero Award, a community event that honors those making significant, positive change in the world.

How we continue to build will affect the chances of survival for our grandchildren.  Modern buildings are often toxic to both the builders & the inhabitants, with many becoming chemically sensitive to products used.   Natural building, with materials like clay, straw, wood & stone are not only non-toxic, they are life enhancing, and if designed correctly, conserve heat & energy.  Natural building has joined the modern age with beautiful and functional structures, that are also less likely to burn in wildfires.

Please join us for a very special evening with Bill, Athena & Roxanne in person, with time for conversation and questions about Natural Building.  **What is it? Why did it become their passion & lifework**?  How is it different from Green Building?  What do they see as the future of natural building, especially for young people looking for a meaningful lifepath & career.

**Sunday, March 23, 6:30-9pm, 2025**
TICKETS $10, $20, & Friends of Eco Hero $100 (students & kids free)  
**Location: Lobero Theatre**
33 E Canon Perdido St, Santa Barbara, CA 93101
**Tickets on Sale Now:** at Lobero Ticket Office lobero.org/events/eco-hero-awa

A panel of 6 photos: Upper left, Athena Steen, ,who has white gray hair, wears a black tee shirt with a rectangle of artwork in different shades of blue. Upper middle, Bill Steen, balding, with gray white hair and mustache, wearing rounded-rectangular wire frame glasses, an aqua-and-white semi-plaid pattern short sleeved button shirt, and a black watch with a white dial. Upper right, Roxanne Swentzell, a middle aged white woman with brown hair, bangs, and earrings of long white triangular pendants. She is wearing a black garment. She holds a statuette of a woman, not young, sitting cross legged, wearing a light greenish garment and holding three babies. Under Athena Steen, a photo of artwork embedded in a beige wall. A white spiraling clockwise line of white clay sculpture begins at a stylized sun wheel symbol like a slender tail and then gets thicker, evoking a snail shape as it curves up the the left, approaching the left boundary of the wall, then narrowing as it extends to the across with with of the artwork and wall and curves around the edge of wall into another room space. Under Bill Steen, an interior room of a house the Steens have built from clay and wood. The far wall has a tall glass window. The thickness of the wall is from the depth of the window enclosure. Under the photo of Roxanne Swentzell, are two different curving wall structures, one on the left a smooth clay color, the one on the right taller and constructed of rocks.

We visited Dartington a few years ago just to see this forest garden. It was an inspiring day and great to see how the integration of food/non-food plants. There’s no substitute for visiting a forest garden if you want to start creating your own and the one at Dartington is an exemplar. #forestgarden #permaculture #growing agroforestry.co.uk/save-dartin

Please sign this petition to Dartington Hall Trust to ensure their counterproductive and frankly insane decision to end Martin Crawford's lease on the best example of a #Permaculture #Agroforestry #FoodForest #ForestGarden in the temperate world!

Martin Crawford's work is so pioneering and important and MUST be allowed to continue. chng.it/cn2cCGFhbs
