I felt inspired, supported, understood, challenged, encouraged. As they say, every conflict is an opportunity, and if we see this pandemic as a global conflict, then it could indeed be a great opportunity- for change, for slowing down, for going deeper not further, for (inner) gardening, for Permaculture!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’m grateful for all the amazing people I met during the courses, so many laughs, hugs, spontaneous dancing, building and burning our first fireplace. Our Perma-tribe was led by our eco-shaman Helder, the most unusual, non-conformist teacher I ever had, with his great sense of humor & observation skills, he knows how to bring out the best in people. Lots of cool (horror) stories from his many experiences around the world. Bring popcorn.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVgaruhMXlhqH-kiYUlOmb0nfsBXOBTJsNDr_hMGqvcvhm_08cFY7rmvP3rUL8TyjI9o3p9pgIdO_g-2Zml1jO0Qn1DY4SfWxanQGPEu16v_BR4fN68C4bbxyUr5Km9UZSWu1NDP0h8ul_/s1600/WhatsApp+Image+2020-12-01+at++18.57.28.jpeg" style="color: #22b129; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="431" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVgaruhMXlhqH-kiYUlOmb0nfsBXOBTJsNDr_hMGqvcvhm_08cFY7rmvP3rUL8TyjI9o3p9pgIdO_g-2Zml1jO0Qn1DY4SfWxanQGPEu16v_BR4fN68C4bbxyUr5Km9UZSWu1NDP0h8ul_/w323-h431/WhatsApp+Image+2020-12-01+at++18.57.28.jpeg" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="323" /></a></div><p></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">And so, brave people from 10 different countries, so different from each other, yet we got together for the same reason or cause- we want to shift from an outdated broken society model to a conscious, harmonious co-existing with Nature, where we can all be involved, from growing a pepper on your urban balcony (and maybe some guerrilla planting shhh) to regenerating soils, forest, and rivers. It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power. So this Permaculture internship was for me, among other things, about Empowerment.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Empowerment and understanding the Essence- whatever the question is, the answer can be found in Nature, by observing, interacting and experimenting. We humans, as Observers, can change the world around us, thus we are creators of our own worlds (inspiration from quantum physics). When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe. It’s a holistic approach on Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that techniques and recipes are useful but once you understand The Essence of a process, you don’t need the recipe anymore.

We considered different methods of growing delicious mushrooms in our food forest, garden beds, around trees as companions, innoculating tree logs with different species of gourmet but also medicinal fungi.</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Especially interesting (extra nerdy) to me was to learn about mycorrhizal symbiotic relationships between fungi and plants, trees- it’s a whole underground world there beneath our feet and most of us are not even aware of it!! Soil and fungi go hand in hand like good old friends, and we’re only beginning to understand the complexity of this relationship, how fungi could stimulate plant growth and better reach of resources and nutrients, an invisible landscape under the surface, what a trip! Dip your baby trees in a mycorrhizal solution before planting and in a few years you have Boletus growing in your orchard- garden of Eden vibes, or more like Alice in Wonderland vibes. Speaking of which- that’s how it felt to me when we went for a hike in the island’s old forest around Lagoa do Congro, a magical place filled with myth, mossy blankets, fallen old trees slowly decomposing into the soil, devoured by beautiful clumps of mushrooms, popping up here and there along our path, Armillarias (edible btw), Ganodermas, Russulas, Amanitas (that first Amanita Muscaria made my day) and even a rare white Coral mushroom. The fungi working slow but steady in the darkness and silence of the forest, balancing out human impact, contamination, deforestation, monoculture, it all gets processed into the Natural Succession of the forest, by these quiet sentinels of Nature, spreading their mycelium fractals deep into the soil, connecting Life and Death, decomposition and rebirth. I can only come back to learn more on this!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/s1920/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="color: #22b129; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="337" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/w449-h337/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="449" /></a></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Food forest course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"><b> </b></span><span style="color: black;">finally, all our questions answered, because everything goes down to 1 thing basically- and obviously I won't say it here!</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Starting with the basics- how to plant something (you gotta start somewhere); companion planting (what goes where and who likes what); tips on trees (excuse the pun), from planting to mulching, pruning, grafting, and harvest processing; importance of bio-diversity (F* monocultures!); soil quality and funky fertilizers (one rule- use what you have in abundance); natural pest control; to more fancy stuff like creating Mandala Gardens (or any other poetic shape), following natural Patterns to incorporate efficiency with beauty, because that’s how Nature likes it (if you didn’t know now you know).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Special class with our sweet Pablo from Tenerife- he talked about his passion for seeds, being part of a local seed bank association, he had much to share on the importance of seed network, selecting, processing and storing seeds of different species, to preserve, maintain but also encourage local bio-diversity as part of our cultural heritage.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Fascinating to see how all the layers interconnect and interact with each other to create a healthy garden or eco-system, for the body and soul.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Speaking of body and soul, we took a few days off to enjoy the island of Sao Miguel and its magical beauty.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">The old forest at Lagoa do Congro welcomed us with an abundance of mushrooms, moss and ferns that made me feel like Alice in Wonderland (look for the mythical “portal” above the lake).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Terra Nostra botanical garden enchanted us with its ancient trees and rare plants, blue lotuses and monkey puzzles (you can eat the nut).

I felt inspired, supported, understood, challenged, encouraged. As they say, every conflict is an opportunity, and if we see this pandemic as a global conflict, then it could indeed be a great opportunity- for change, for slowing down, for going deeper not further, for (inner) gardening, for Permaculture!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’m grateful for all the amazing people I met during the courses, so many laughs, hugs, spontaneous dancing, building and burning our first fireplace. Our Perma-tribe was led by our eco-shaman Helder, the most unusual, non-conformist teacher I ever had, with his great sense of humor & observation skills, he knows how to bring out the best in people. Lots of cool (horror) stories from his many experiences around the world. Bring popcorn.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVgaruhMXlhqH-kiYUlOmb0nfsBXOBTJsNDr_hMGqvcvhm_08cFY7rmvP3rUL8TyjI9o3p9pgIdO_g-2Zml1jO0Qn1DY4SfWxanQGPEu16v_BR4fN68C4bbxyUr5Km9UZSWu1NDP0h8ul_/s1600/WhatsApp+Image+2020-12-01+at++18.57.28.jpeg" style="color: #22b129; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="431" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVgaruhMXlhqH-kiYUlOmb0nfsBXOBTJsNDr_hMGqvcvhm_08cFY7rmvP3rUL8TyjI9o3p9pgIdO_g-2Zml1jO0Qn1DY4SfWxanQGPEu16v_BR4fN68C4bbxyUr5Km9UZSWu1NDP0h8ul_/w323-h431/WhatsApp+Image+2020-12-01+at++18.57.28.jpeg" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="323" /></a></div><p></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">And so, brave people from 10 different countries, so different from each other, yet we got together for the same reason or cause- we want to shift from an outdated broken society model to a conscious, harmonious co-existing with Nature, where we can all be involved, from growing a pepper on your urban balcony (and maybe some guerrilla planting shhh) to regenerating soils, forest, and rivers. It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power. So this Permaculture internship was for me, among other things, about Empowerment.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Empowerment and understanding the Essence- whatever the question is, the answer can be found in Nature, by observing, interacting and experimenting. We humans, as Observers, can change the world around us, thus we are creators of our own worlds (inspiration from quantum physics). When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe. It’s a holistic approach on Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that techniques and recipes are useful but once you understand The Essence of a process, you don’t need the recipe anymore. You can make your own fertilizer, you can make your own vinegar!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that when working with Nature, as with people, being gentle is more important than having a lot of knowledge and experience. Mindset and attitude are more important than any material resources.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">With every course of the internship it felt like I’m putting a puzzle together to finally see “the bigger picture”:</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>PDC design course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"> the most intense course in my opinion, touches many aspects of our lives, from good design of our gardens and lives, to patterns in nature. We started by learning about Permaculture classics and their methods, like Bill Mollison that said:</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span style="color: black;">“<span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Permaculture is a dance with Nature- in which Nature leads.”</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">We continued with Natural Succession, understanding the process and purpose of an eco-system, from Gramineae to forests. We studied soil composition and the importance (VERY important) of soil health in relation to balanced systems, abundant yield and sustainable agriculture. Of course we also touched classic topics like different types of composts, dry toilets, water management and household efficiency.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">It wasn’t all hard work and taking notes, we also had chill open space at night and occasional movie nights when we would watch inspiring films about Permaculture projects around the world, for example the virtual tour around David Holmgren’s farm (another classic), or the online interview we had with Brian Laufer and his amazing plant collection.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Finally, we got to designing our first Permaculture project, for our first “client”- our dear host Ana, understanding her needs, vision, mission and objectives- great teamwork and very efficient Design Plan Process (OBRADIMCE)!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Another important aspect of this course for me was working on our dream project, design to details, because our dreams are the seeds of change, waiting patiently in the darkness, to be sprouting in the right conditions (inspiration from the Seeds Workshop with Pablo).</span></p><p style="background-color: white;

soil quality and funky fertilizers (one rule- use what you have in abundance); natural pest control; to more fancy stuff like creating Mandala Gardens (or any other poetic shape), following natural Patterns to incorporate efficiency with beauty, because that’s how Nature likes it (if you didn’t know now you know).</span></p><p style="background-color: white;

Our Perma-tribe was led by our eco-shaman Helder, the most unusual, non-conformist teacher I ever had, with his great sense of humor & observation skills, he knows how to bring out the best in people. Lots of cool (horror) stories from his many experiences around the world.

It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power. So this Permaculture internship was for me, among other things, about Empowerment.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Empowerment and understanding the Essence- whatever the question is, the answer can be found in Nature, by observing, interacting and experimenting. We humans, as Observers, can change the world around us, thus we are creators of our own worlds (inspiration from quantum physics). When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe. It’s a holistic approach on Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that techniques and recipes are useful but once you understand The Essence of a process, you don’t need the recipe anymore.

We considered different methods of growing delicious mushrooms in our food forest, garden beds, around trees as companions, innoculating tree logs with different species of gourmet but also medicinal fungi.</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Especially interesting (extra nerdy) to me was to learn about mycorrhizal symbiotic relationships between fungi and plants, trees- it’s a whole underground world there beneath our feet and most of us are not even aware of it!! Soil and fungi go hand in hand like good old friends, and we’re only beginning to understand the complexity of this relationship, how fungi could stimulate plant growth and better reach of resources and nutrients, an invisible landscape under the surface, what a trip! Dip your baby trees in a mycorrhizal solution before planting and in a few years you have Boletus growing in your orchard- garden of Eden vibes, or more like Alice in Wonderland vibes. Speaking of which- that’s how it felt to me when we went for a hike in the island’s old forest around Lagoa do Congro, a magical place filled with myth, mossy blankets, fallen old trees slowly decomposing into the soil, devoured by beautiful clumps of mushrooms, popping up here and there along our path, Armillarias (edible btw), Ganodermas, Russulas, Amanitas (that first Amanita Muscaria made my day) and even a rare white Coral mushroom. The fungi working slow but steady in the darkness and silence of the forest, balancing out human impact, contamination, deforestation, monoculture, it all gets processed into the Natural Succession of the forest, by these quiet sentinels of Nature, spreading their mycelium fractals deep into the soil, connecting Life and Death, decomposition and rebirth.

<span style="font-size: large;">The DDC is a revolutionary course with the objective of helping people find the solutions for the challenges we have to face on our </span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: large;">search for our dreams</span>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">At the DDC we look at what makes us move in this world, what motivates us and makes us feel alive.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">How to bring our dreams, visions and ideas to reality, this course is used for people to dedicate time and space to really think about it....how would it be like?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We also put a focus on project development and management and how to deal with difference of opinions or conflict resolution.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We talk about positive and clear communication and decision tools like sociocracy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">How can we live in community, have our own space and time and still be part of this social collective consciousness.</span></div>

He began by importing 12 seedlings from Japan in 1885, including ‘Abundance’ and ‘Satsuma’ (</span><em style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Noto Sans", sans-serif;">Prunus salicina</em><span face=""Noto Sans", sans-serif">). The cultivars he released in the late 19th and early 20th centuries played a crucial role in developing commercial cultivation of Asian-type plums in California, the United States, and much of the world; they also served as founding clones for later breeders. His crowning achievement was ‘Santa Rosa’ (introduced 1906), which in 1945, ‘Santa Rosa’ accounted for 36% of the California plum harvest. Many of Burbank’s other cultivars of primarily </span><em style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Noto Sans", sans-serif;">P. salicina</em><span face=""Noto Sans", sans-serif"> ancestry were extensively cultivated in California in the early and middle 1900s, including ‘Beauty’ (introduced 1911), ‘Burbank’ (1888), ‘Duarte’ (1911), ‘Eldorado’ (1904), ‘Formosa’ (1907), and ‘Wickson’ (1895). His most important introductions of European plum (</span><em style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: "Noto Sans", sans-serif;">P. domestica</em><span face=""Noto Sans", sans-serif">) were ‘Improved French’ prune (1898), ‘Sugar’ prune (1899) and ‘Standard’ prune (1911). Some of Burbank’s more obscure introductions never received general distribution and have disappeared; others such as ‘Santa Rosa’, ‘Shiro’ (1899), and ‘Elephant Heart’ (released posthumously in 1929) still are commonly cultivated today in home gardens and for sale at local markets.</span></span></span></p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; margin: 1.25em 0px 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span face=""Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", "Lucida Sans Unicode", Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; white-space-collapse: collapse;"> <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/A1H4Qfu7QbI?si=RrFn6Lxq-ut5_OEC" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></span></p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; margin: 1.25em 0px 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span style="background-color: white; white-space-collapse: collapse;">After Burbank’s death, his wife leased the collection at Gold Ridge in Sepastopol to Starks Bros. Nursery of Missouri (founded 1816), who then released the famed ‘July Elberta’ peach and other selections from the extensive test grounds. They actually trademarked the Burbank name to describe his varieties. Though most of the trees were destroyed by Starks Bros. (so as to hide anything good they missed), Elizabeth sold the Goldridge Farm to be used for low-cost elder housing, with the stipulation that a few acres would be preserved as orchard- and so it stands today as a public park in Sebastopol.</span></p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; margin: 1.25em 0px 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span face=""Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span face=""Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", "Lucida Sans Unicode", Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; white-space-collapse: collapse;"><br /></span></span></p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: #374151; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0px 0px 1.25em; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Luther Burbank had a significant connection with Stark Bro's Nurseries & Orchards Co., one of the largest fruit tree nurseries in the United States.

Stark Bro's recognized the value of Burbank's innovations and worked closely with him to propagate and market his creations.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: #374151; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">One of the most notable collaborations between Luther Burbank and Stark Bro's was the introduction of the Burbank potato in 1912. This potato variety, developed by Burbank, became highly popular due to its disease resistance and high yields. Stark Bro's played a crucial role in distributing the Burbank potato to farmers and gardeners across the country, contributing to its widespread adoption.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: #374151; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Additionally, Stark Bro's also distributed other Burbank creations, including fruit trees like the Santa Rosa plum and the Burbank cherry, as well as various ornamental plants and flowers.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; color: #374151; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">The partnership between Luther Burbank and Stark Bro's helped bring many of Burbank's plant varieties to a wider audience, further cementing his reputation as a pioneering horticulturist and contributing to the diversity of agricultural crops and ornamental plants available to growers and gardeners.</p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Söhne, ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "Segoe UI", Roboto, Ubuntu, Cantarell, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 1.25em 0px 0px; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span face=""Segoe UI Historic", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px;"><a href="https://www.starkbros.com/about?fbclid=IwAR1YR8AfRXdcXMZaaWPjkkCmFB6QVHHL8-6JlddYBKpreDRqJAHgeYc51v0">Stark Bros</a></span></p><p style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(69,89,164,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 transparent; --tw-shadow: 0 0 transparent; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; border: 0px solid rgb(217, 217, 227); box-sizing: border-box; margin: 1.25em 0px 0px;"><br /></p>

Soil creation and improvement, its the first thing we design for when we start a new project and once it starts it never finishes.From compost to natural fertilizers, to worm farming to animal feed, there are many ways to manage the organic waste but it usually stays all the project and its all converted on precious black soil.</span></p></li></ul><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><ul style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-inline-start: 48px;"><li aria-level="2" dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: circle; margin-left: 36pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: medium; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the great experiences in permaculture projects its to be able to eat the fruits of our work, its very usual to find large abundant vegetable gardens and diverse food forests producing a large diversity of fruits and berries .Producing its a part of it but also important its the processing of such crops.To make marmalades, vinegars, sourkrauts, jams and wines its a common experience in permaculture projects.

It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power.

When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe. It’s a holistic approach on Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that techniques and recipes are useful but once you understand The Essence of a process, you don’t need the recipe anymore. You can make your own fertilizer, you can make your own vinegar!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that when working with Nature, as with people, being gentle is more important than having a lot of knowledge and experience. Mindset and attitude are more important than any material resources.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">With every course of the internship it felt like I’m putting a puzzle together to finally see “the bigger picture”:</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>PDC design course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"> the most intense course in my opinion, touches many aspects of our lives, from good design of our gardens and lives, to patterns in nature.

We studied soil composition and the importance (VERY important) of soil health in relation to balanced systems, abundant yield and sustainable agriculture. Of course we also touched classic topics like different types of composts, dry toilets, water management and household efficiency.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">It wasn’t all hard work and taking notes, we also had chill open space at night and occasional movie nights when we would watch inspiring films about Permaculture projects around the world, for example the virtual tour around David Holmgren’s farm (another classic), or the online interview we had with Brian Laufer and his amazing plant collection.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Finally, we got to designing our first Permaculture project, for our first “client”- our dear host Ana, understanding her needs, vision, mission and objectives- great teamwork and very efficient Design Plan Process (OBRADIMCE)!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Another important aspect of this course for me was working on our dream project, design to details, because our dreams are the seeds of change, waiting patiently in the darkness, to be sprouting in the right conditions (inspiration from the Seeds Workshop with Pablo).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsWhYl1uuPDRrpx6rqCmWdEsGcTJBnrUiUzvNoEOTPd5AQu9yJaM5c6ykTBadoSyqNlmGPfaLEiNrfAAu1FOM09gGBfN0JHcVpIedNWey-uioS35B2oOcF_ltpO2j6iYBd1ATD6yOhw_Sk/s2048/IMG_20201201_184830.jpg" style="color: #22b129; font-size: medium; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="423" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsWhYl1uuPDRrpx6rqCmWdEsGcTJBnrUiUzvNoEOTPd5AQu9yJaM5c6ykTBadoSyqNlmGPfaLEiNrfAAu1FOM09gGBfN0JHcVpIedNWey-uioS35B2oOcF_ltpO2j6iYBd1ATD6yOhw_Sk/w317-h423/IMG_20201201_184830.jpg" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="317" /></a></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Social course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"> challenging for me personally, as it requires A LOT of extroversion and getting out of comfort zones, but I survived apparently!

We considered different methods of growing delicious mushrooms in our food forest, garden beds, around trees as companions, innoculating tree logs with different species of gourmet but also medicinal fungi.</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Especially interesting (extra nerdy) to me was to learn about mycorrhizal symbiotic relationships between fungi and plants, trees- it’s a whole underground world there beneath our feet and most of us are not even aware of it!! Soil and fungi go hand in hand like good old friends, and we’re only beginning to understand the complexity of this relationship, how fungi could stimulate plant growth and better reach of resources and nutrients, an invisible landscape under the surface, what a trip! Dip your baby trees in a mycorrhizal solution before planting and in a few years you have Boletus growing in your orchard- garden of Eden vibes, or more like Alice in Wonderland vibes. Speaking of which- that’s how it felt to me when we went for a hike in the island’s old forest around Lagoa do Congro, a magical place filled with myth, mossy blankets, fallen old trees slowly decomposing into the soil, devoured by beautiful clumps of mushrooms, popping up here and there along our path, Armillarias (edible btw), Ganodermas, Russulas, Amanitas (that first Amanita Muscaria made my day) and even a rare white Coral mushroom. The fungi working slow but steady in the darkness and silence of the forest, balancing out human impact, contamination, deforestation, monoculture, it all gets processed into the Natural Succession of the forest, by these quiet sentinels of Nature, spreading their mycelium fractals deep into the soil, connecting Life and Death, decomposition and rebirth. I can only come back to learn more on this!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/s1920/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="color: #22b129; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="337" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/w449-h337/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="449" /></a></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Food forest course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"><b> </b></span><span style="color: black;">finally, all our questions answered, because everything goes down to 1 thing basically- and obviously I won't say it here!</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Starting with the basics- how to plant something (you gotta start somewhere); companion planting (what goes where and who likes what); tips on trees (excuse the pun), from planting to mulching, pruning, grafting, and harvest processing; importance of bio-diversity (F* monocultures!); soil quality and funky fertilizers (one rule- use what you have in abundance); natural pest control; to more fancy stuff like creating Mandala Gardens (or any other poetic shape), following natural Patterns to incorporate efficiency with beauty, because that’s how Nature likes it (if you didn’t know now you know).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Special class with our sweet Pablo from Tenerife- he talked about his passion for seeds, being part of a local seed bank association, he had much to share on the importance of seed network, selecting, processing and storing seeds of different species, to preserve, maintain but also encourage local bio-diversity as part of our cultural heritage.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Fascinating to see how all the layers interconnect and interact with each other to create a healthy garden or eco-system, for the body and soul.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Speaking of body and soul, we took a few days off to enjoy the island of Sao Miguel and its magical beauty.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">The old forest at Lagoa do Congro welcomed us with an abundance of mushrooms, moss and ferns that made me feel like Alice in Wonderland (look for the mythical “portal” above the lake).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Terra Nostra botanical garden enchanted us with its ancient trees and rare plants, blue lotuses and monkey puzzles (you can eat the nut).

Soil creation and improvement, its the first thing we design for when we start a new project and once it starts it never finishes.From compost to natural fertilizers, to worm farming to animal feed, there are many ways to manage the organic waste but it usually stays all the project and its all converted on precious black soil.</span></p></li></ul><div style="font-family: arial; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><ul style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-inline-start: 48px;"><li aria-level="2" dir="ltr" style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Arial; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: circle; margin-left: 36pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: medium; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the great experiences in permaculture projects its to be able to eat the fruits of our work, its very usual to find large abundant vegetable gardens and diverse food forests producing a large diversity of fruits and berries .Producing its a part of it but also important its the processing of such crops.To make marmalades, vinegars, sourkrauts, jams and wines its a common experience in permaculture projects.

It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power. So this Permaculture internship was for me, among other things, about Empowerment.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Empowerment and understanding the Essence- whatever the question is, the answer can be found in Nature, by observing, interacting and experimenting. We humans, as Observers, can change the world around us, thus we are creators of our own worlds (inspiration from quantum physics). When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe. It’s a holistic approach on Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that techniques and recipes are useful but once you understand The Essence of a process, you don’t need the recipe anymore.

We considered different methods of growing delicious mushrooms in our food forest, garden beds, around trees as companions, innoculating tree logs with different species of gourmet but also medicinal fungi.</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Especially interesting (extra nerdy) to me was to learn about mycorrhizal symbiotic relationships between fungi and plants, trees- it’s a whole underground world there beneath our feet and most of us are not even aware of it!! Soil and fungi go hand in hand like good old friends, and we’re only beginning to understand the complexity of this relationship, how fungi could stimulate plant growth and better reach of resources and nutrients, an invisible landscape under the surface, what a trip! Dip your baby trees in a mycorrhizal solution before planting and in a few years you have Boletus growing in your orchard- garden of Eden vibes, or more like Alice in Wonderland vibes. Speaking of which- that’s how it felt to me when we went for a hike in the island’s old forest around Lagoa do Congro, a magical place filled with myth, mossy blankets, fallen old trees slowly decomposing into the soil, devoured by beautiful clumps of mushrooms, popping up here and there along our path, Armillarias (edible btw), Ganodermas, Russulas, Amanitas (that first Amanita Muscaria made my day) and even a rare white Coral mushroom. The fungi working slow but steady in the darkness and silence of the forest, balancing out human impact, contamination, deforestation, monoculture, it all gets processed into the Natural Succession of the forest, by these quiet sentinels of Nature, spreading their mycelium fractals deep into the soil, connecting Life and Death, decomposition and rebirth.

<span><span style="font-size: large;">Permaculture is a sustainable design
system that provides for human needs while having positive effects on
the surrounding environment. It is based on the ethics of earth care,
people care and fair share, and provides practical solutions to the
global crises we are currently facing.</span></span></div>

<br />
<span style="display: inline;"> It all started in 2009 teaching permaculture to students at the
agriculture university and since then learning and teaching </span><span style="display: inline;"><span style="display: inline;">in many

I felt inspired, supported, understood, challenged, encouraged. As they say, every conflict is an opportunity, and if we see this pandemic as a global conflict, then it could indeed be a great opportunity- for change, for slowing down, for going deeper not further, for (inner) gardening, for Permaculture!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’m grateful for all the amazing people I met during the courses, so many laughs, hugs, spontaneous dancing, building and burning our first fireplace. Our Perma-tribe was led by our eco-shaman Helder, the most unusual, non-conformist teacher I ever had, with his great sense of humor & observation skills, he knows how to bring out the best in people. Lots of cool (horror) stories from his many experiences around the world.

It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power. So this Permaculture internship was for me, among other things, about Empowerment.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Empowerment and understanding the Essence- whatever the question is, the answer can be found in Nature, by observing, interacting and experimenting. We humans, as Observers, can change the world around us, thus we are creators of our own worlds (inspiration from quantum physics). When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe. It’s a holistic approach on Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that techniques and recipes are useful but once you understand The Essence of a process, you don’t need the recipe anymore.

We studied soil composition and the importance (VERY important) of soil health in relation to balanced systems, abundant yield and sustainable agriculture. Of course we also touched classic topics like different types of composts, dry toilets, water management and household efficiency.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">It wasn’t all hard work and taking notes, we also had chill open space at night and occasional movie nights when we would watch inspiring films about Permaculture projects around the world, for example the virtual tour around David Holmgren’s farm (another classic), or the online interview we had with Brian Laufer and his amazing plant collection.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Finally, we got to designing our first Permaculture project, for our first “client”- our dear host Ana, understanding her needs, vision, mission and objectives- great teamwork and very efficient Design Plan Process (OBRADIMCE)!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Another important aspect of this course for me was working on our dream project, design to details, because our dreams are the seeds of change, waiting patiently in the darkness, to be sprouting in the right conditions (inspiration from the Seeds Workshop with Pablo).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsWhYl1uuPDRrpx6rqCmWdEsGcTJBnrUiUzvNoEOTPd5AQu9yJaM5c6ykTBadoSyqNlmGPfaLEiNrfAAu1FOM09gGBfN0JHcVpIedNWey-uioS35B2oOcF_ltpO2j6iYBd1ATD6yOhw_Sk/s2048/IMG_20201201_184830.jpg" style="color: #22b129; font-size: medium; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="423" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsWhYl1uuPDRrpx6rqCmWdEsGcTJBnrUiUzvNoEOTPd5AQu9yJaM5c6ykTBadoSyqNlmGPfaLEiNrfAAu1FOM09gGBfN0JHcVpIedNWey-uioS35B2oOcF_ltpO2j6iYBd1ATD6yOhw_Sk/w317-h423/IMG_20201201_184830.jpg" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="317" /></a></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Social course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"> challenging for me personally, as it requires A LOT of extroversion and getting out of comfort zones, but I survived apparently!

Result- amazing terraces that catch the excess rain water to guide it, save it and safely store it down the valley, to feed the plants and trees, preventing land erosion and flooding.

We considered different methods of growing delicious mushrooms in our food forest, garden beds, around trees as companions, innoculating tree logs with different species of gourmet but also medicinal fungi.</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Especially interesting (extra nerdy) to me was to learn about mycorrhizal symbiotic relationships between fungi and plants, trees- it’s a whole underground world there beneath our feet and most of us are not even aware of it!! Soil and fungi go hand in hand like good old friends, and we’re only beginning to understand the complexity of this relationship, how fungi could stimulate plant growth and better reach of resources and nutrients, an invisible landscape under the surface, what a trip! Dip your baby trees in a mycorrhizal solution before planting and in a few years you have Boletus growing in your orchard- garden of Eden vibes, or more like Alice in Wonderland vibes. Speaking of which- that’s how it felt to me when we went for a hike in the island’s old forest around Lagoa do Congro, a magical place filled with myth, mossy blankets, fallen old trees slowly decomposing into the soil, devoured by beautiful clumps of mushrooms, popping up here and there along our path, Armillarias (edible btw), Ganodermas, Russulas, Amanitas (that first Amanita Muscaria made my day) and even a rare white Coral mushroom. The fungi working slow but steady in the darkness and silence of the forest, balancing out human impact, contamination, deforestation, monoculture, it all gets processed into the Natural Succession of the forest, by these quiet sentinels of Nature, spreading their mycelium fractals deep into the soil, connecting Life and Death, decomposition and rebirth. I can only come back to learn more on this!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/s1920/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="color: #22b129; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="337" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/w449-h337/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="449" /></a></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Food forest course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"><b> </b></span><span style="color: black;">finally, all our questions answered, because everything goes down to 1 thing basically- and obviously I won't say it here!</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Starting with the basics- how to plant something (you gotta start somewhere); companion planting (what goes where and who likes what); tips on trees (excuse the pun), from planting to mulching, pruning, grafting, and harvest processing; importance of bio-diversity (F* monocultures!); soil quality and funky fertilizers (one rule- use what you have in abundance); natural pest control; to more fancy stuff like creating Mandala Gardens (or any other poetic shape), following natural Patterns to incorporate efficiency with beauty, because that’s how Nature likes it (if you didn’t know now you know).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Special class with our sweet Pablo from Tenerife- he talked about his passion for seeds, being part of a local seed bank association, he had much to share on the importance of seed network, selecting, processing and storing seeds of different species, to preserve, maintain but also encourage local bio-diversity as part of our cultural heritage.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Fascinating to see how all the layers interconnect and interact with each other to create a healthy garden or eco-system, for the body and soul.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Speaking of body and soul, we took a few days off to enjoy the island of Sao Miguel and its magical beauty.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">The old forest at Lagoa do Congro welcomed us with an abundance of mushrooms, moss and ferns that made me feel like Alice in Wonderland (look for the mythical “portal” above the lake).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Terra Nostra botanical garden enchanted us with its ancient trees and rare plants, blue lotuses and monkey puzzles (you can eat the nut).

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We look at what makes us move in this world of alternative thinking that permaculture provides.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">How to bring our dreams, visions and ideas to reality, this course is used for people to dedicate time and space to really think about it....how would it be like?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We also put a focus on project development and management and how to deal with difference of opinions or conflict resolution.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We talk about positive and clear communication and decision tools like sociocracy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">How can we live in community, have our own space and time and still be part of this social collective consciousness.</span></div>

I felt inspired, supported, understood, challenged, encouraged. As they say, every conflict is an opportunity, and if we see this pandemic as a global conflict, then it could indeed be a great opportunity- for change, for slowing down, for going deeper not further, for (inner) gardening, for Permaculture!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-family: "Liberation Serif", "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’m grateful for all the amazing people I met during the courses, so many laughs, hugs, spontaneous dancing, building and burning our first fireplace.

Lots of cool (horror) stories from his many experiences around the world.

It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power. So this Permaculture internship was for me, among other things, about Empowerment.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-family: "Liberation Serif", "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Empowerment and understanding the Essence- whatever the question is, the answer can be found in Nature, by observing, interacting and experimenting. We humans, as Observers, can change the world around us, thus we are creators of our own worlds (inspiration from quantum physics). When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-family: "Liberation Serif", "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe. It’s a holistic approach on Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-family: "Liberation Serif", "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that techniques and recipes are useful but once you understand The Essence of a process, you don’t need the recipe anymore.

I felt inspired, supported, understood, challenged, encouraged. As they say, every conflict is an opportunity, and if we see this pandemic as a global conflict, then it could indeed be a great opportunity- for change, for slowing down, for going deeper not further, for (inner) gardening, for Permaculture!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’m grateful for all the amazing people I met during the courses, so many laughs, hugs, spontaneous dancing, building and burning our first fireplace. Our Perma-tribe was led by our eco-shaman Helder, the most unusual, non-conformist teacher I ever had, with his great sense of humor & observation skills, he knows how to bring out the best in people. Lots of cool (horror) stories from his many experiences around the world. Bring popcorn.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVgaruhMXlhqH-kiYUlOmb0nfsBXOBTJsNDr_hMGqvcvhm_08cFY7rmvP3rUL8TyjI9o3p9pgIdO_g-2Zml1jO0Qn1DY4SfWxanQGPEu16v_BR4fN68C4bbxyUr5Km9UZSWu1NDP0h8ul_/s1600/WhatsApp+Image+2020-12-01+at++18.57.28.jpeg" style="color: #22b129; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" height="431" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVgaruhMXlhqH-kiYUlOmb0nfsBXOBTJsNDr_hMGqvcvhm_08cFY7rmvP3rUL8TyjI9o3p9pgIdO_g-2Zml1jO0Qn1DY4SfWxanQGPEu16v_BR4fN68C4bbxyUr5Km9UZSWu1NDP0h8ul_/w323-h431/WhatsApp+Image+2020-12-01+at++18.57.28.jpeg" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="323" /></a></div><p></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">And so, brave people from 10 different countries, so different from each other, yet we got together for the same reason or cause- we want to shift from an outdated broken society model to a conscious, harmonious co-existing with Nature, where we can all be involved, from growing a pepper on your urban balcony (and maybe some guerrilla planting shhh) to regenerating soils, forest, and rivers. It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power. So this Permaculture internship was for me, among other things, about Empowerment.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Empowerment and understanding the Essence- whatever the question is, the answer can be found in Nature, by observing, interacting and experimenting. We humans, as Observers, can change the world around us, thus we are creators of our own worlds (inspiration from quantum physics). When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe. It’s a holistic approach on Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that techniques and recipes are useful but once you understand The Essence of a process, you don’t need the recipe anymore. You can make your own fertilizer, you can make your own vinegar!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that when working with Nature, as with people, being gentle is more important than having a lot of knowledge and experience. Mindset and attitude are more important than any material resources.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">With every course of the internship it felt like I’m putting a puzzle together to finally see “the bigger picture”:</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>PDC design course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"> the most intense course in my opinion, touches many aspects of our lives, from good design of our gardens and lives, to patterns in nature.

We studied soil composition and the importance (VERY important) of soil health in relation to balanced systems, abundant yield and sustainable agriculture. Of course we also touched classic topics like different types of composts, dry toilets, water management and household efficiency.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">It wasn’t all hard work and taking notes, we also had chill open space at night and occasional movie nights when we would watch inspiring films about Permaculture projects around the world, for example the virtual tour around David Holmgren’s farm (another classic), or the online interview we had with Brian Laufer and his amazing plant collection.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Finally, we got to designing our first Permaculture project, for our first “client”- our dear host Ana, understanding her needs, vision, mission and objectives- great teamwork and very efficient Design Plan Process (OBRADIMCE)!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Another important aspect of this course for me was working on our dream project, design to details, because our dreams are the seeds of change, waiting patiently in the darkness, to be sprouting in the right conditions (inspiration from the Seeds Workshop with Pablo).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsWhYl1uuPDRrpx6rqCmWdEsGcTJBnrUiUzvNoEOTPd5AQu9yJaM5c6ykTBadoSyqNlmGPfaLEiNrfAAu1FOM09gGBfN0JHcVpIedNWey-uioS35B2oOcF_ltpO2j6iYBd1ATD6yOhw_Sk/s2048/IMG_20201201_184830.jpg" style="color: #22b129; font-size: medium; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="423" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsWhYl1uuPDRrpx6rqCmWdEsGcTJBnrUiUzvNoEOTPd5AQu9yJaM5c6ykTBadoSyqNlmGPfaLEiNrfAAu1FOM09gGBfN0JHcVpIedNWey-uioS35B2oOcF_ltpO2j6iYBd1ATD6yOhw_Sk/w317-h423/IMG_20201201_184830.jpg" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="317" /></a></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Social course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"> challenging for me personally, as it requires A LOT of extroversion and getting out of comfort zones, but I survived apparently!

And we digged. Then we had some pizza, then we digged again, music, laughing, party-mode team work swale digging. Result- amazing terraces that catch the excess rain water to guide it, save it and safely store it down the valley, to feed the plants and trees, preventing land erosion and flooding.

We considered different methods of growing delicious mushrooms in our food forest, garden beds, around trees as companions, innoculating tree logs with different species of gourmet but also medicinal fungi.</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Especially interesting (extra nerdy) to me was to learn about mycorrhizal symbiotic relationships between fungi and plants, trees- it’s a whole underground world there beneath our feet and most of us are not even aware of it!! Soil and fungi go hand in hand like good old friends, and we’re only beginning to understand the complexity of this relationship, how fungi could stimulate plant growth and better reach of resources and nutrients, an invisible landscape under the surface, what a trip! Dip your baby trees in a mycorrhizal solution before planting and in a few years you have Boletus growing in your orchard- garden of Eden vibes, or more like Alice in Wonderland vibes. Speaking of which- that’s how it felt to me when we went for a hike in the island’s old forest around Lagoa do Congro, a magical place filled with myth, mossy blankets, fallen old trees slowly decomposing into the soil, devoured by beautiful clumps of mushrooms, popping up here and there along our path, Armillarias (edible btw), Ganodermas, Russulas, Amanitas (that first Amanita Muscaria made my day) and even a rare white Coral mushroom. The fungi working slow but steady in the darkness and silence of the forest, balancing out human impact, contamination, deforestation, monoculture, it all gets processed into the Natural Succession of the forest, by these quiet sentinels of Nature, spreading their mycelium fractals deep into the soil, connecting Life and Death, decomposition and rebirth. I can only come back to learn more on this!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/s1920/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="color: #22b129; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="337" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/w449-h337/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="449" /></a></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Food forest course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"><b> </b></span><span style="color: black;">finally, all our questions answered, because everything goes down to 1 thing basically- and obviously I won't say it here!</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Starting with the basics- how to plant something (you gotta start somewhere); companion planting (what goes where and who likes what); tips on trees (excuse the pun), from planting to mulching, pruning, grafting, and harvest processing; importance of bio-diversity (F* monocultures!); soil quality and funky fertilizers (one rule- use what you have in abundance); natural pest control; to more fancy stuff like creating Mandala Gardens (or any other poetic shape), following natural Patterns to incorporate efficiency with beauty, because that’s how Nature likes it (if you didn’t know now you know).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Special class with our sweet Pablo from Tenerife- he talked about his passion for seeds, being part of a local seed bank association, he had much to share on the importance of seed network, selecting, processing and storing seeds of different species, to preserve, maintain but also encourage local bio-diversity as part of our cultural heritage.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Fascinating to see how all the layers interconnect and interact with each other to create a healthy garden or eco-system, for the body and soul.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Speaking of body and soul, we took a few days off to enjoy the island of Sao Miguel and its magical beauty.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">The old forest at Lagoa do Congro welcomed us with an abundance of mushrooms, moss and ferns that made me feel like Alice in Wonderland (look for the mythical “portal” above the lake).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Terra Nostra botanical garden enchanted us with its ancient trees and rare plants, blue lotuses and monkey puzzles (you can eat the nut).

I felt inspired, supported, understood, challenged, encouraged. As they say, every conflict is an opportunity, and if we see this pandemic as a global conflict, then it could indeed be a great opportunity- for change, for slowing down, for going deeper not further, for (inner) gardening, for Permaculture!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’m grateful for all the amazing people I met during the courses, so many laughs, hugs, spontaneous dancing, building and burning our first fireplace. Our Perma-tribe was led by our eco-shaman Helder, the most unusual, non-conformist teacher I ever had, with his great sense of humor & observation skills, he knows how to bring out the best in people. Lots of cool (horror) stories from his many experiences around the world.

It’s a change of mindset where you realize (or more like you are being reminded) that ANYONE can make a change. Anyone can grow food, in any conditions. Each of us plays an important role, wherever we are, and whoever we are- a farmer with many lands, or the weirdo of the family, backpacking around the world- we are all connected in this web of transformation and we are the influence in our community or family, and nowadays, influence is power. So this Permaculture internship was for me, among other things, about Empowerment.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Empowerment and understanding the Essence- whatever the question is, the answer can be found in Nature, by observing, interacting and experimenting. We humans, as Observers, can change the world around us, thus we are creators of our own worlds (inspiration from quantum physics). When we slow down and observe Nature, we see problems as solutions, we understand the natural succession of things, where each part plays a role in the cycle of life, where there are no invasive species, just pioneer soldiers doing their job to balance something our or to regenerate damaged soils or ecosystems. By understanding the Patterns in Nature, we understand ourselves, and by understanding ourselves we move upward in the spiral of Life.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">I’ve learned that Permaculture is about compassion, for all life forms- it’s empathizing with the Earth, with Nature, with the plants, with the animals, the insects, the rivers, the soils, but also with ourselves and the other humans beings across the globe.

We considered different methods of growing delicious mushrooms in our food forest, garden beds, around trees as companions, innoculating tree logs with different species of gourmet but also medicinal fungi.</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Especially interesting (extra nerdy) to me was to learn about mycorrhizal symbiotic relationships between fungi and plants, trees- it’s a whole underground world there beneath our feet and most of us are not even aware of it!! Soil and fungi go hand in hand like good old friends, and we’re only beginning to understand the complexity of this relationship, how fungi could stimulate plant growth and better reach of resources and nutrients, an invisible landscape under the surface, what a trip! Dip your baby trees in a mycorrhizal solution before planting and in a few years you have Boletus growing in your orchard- garden of Eden vibes, or more like Alice in Wonderland vibes. Speaking of which- that’s how it felt to me when we went for a hike in the island’s old forest around Lagoa do Congro, a magical place filled with myth, mossy blankets, fallen old trees slowly decomposing into the soil, devoured by beautiful clumps of mushrooms, popping up here and there along our path, Armillarias (edible btw), Ganodermas, Russulas, Amanitas (that first Amanita Muscaria made my day) and even a rare white Coral mushroom. The fungi working slow but steady in the darkness and silence of the forest, balancing out human impact, contamination, deforestation, monoculture, it all gets processed into the Natural Succession of the forest, by these quiet sentinels of Nature, spreading their mycelium fractals deep into the soil, connecting Life and Death, decomposition and rebirth. I can only come back to learn more on this!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/s1920/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="color: #22b129; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-decoration-line: none;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="337" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0j56kqKbYXZviS4WvP_oW2gGDNgRwEJdZl8VEnnJSdXXd151oivBO6PIZx1n_VubsUBmu2Ld_ue3w135_pDoibVQJlkI8Jcigraj1Xzquaw2lHKsAZX8c3CGEzhneHS-k0m8R8ozZe9lb/w449-h337/IMG-20201025-WA0005.jpg" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-radius: 5px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); box-shadow: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2) 0px 0px 20px; padding: 8px; position: relative;" width="449" /></a></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: black;"><b>Food forest course:</b></span><span style="color: black;"><b> </b></span><span style="color: black;">finally, all our questions answered, because everything goes down to 1 thing basically- and obviously I won't say it here!</span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Starting with the basics- how to plant something (you gotta start somewhere); companion planting (what goes where and who likes what); tips on trees (excuse the pun), from planting to mulching, pruning, grafting, and harvest processing; importance of bio-diversity (F* monocultures!); soil quality and funky fertilizers (one rule- use what you have in abundance); natural pest control; to more fancy stuff like creating Mandala Gardens (or any other poetic shape), following natural Patterns to incorporate efficiency with beauty, because that’s how Nature likes it (if you didn’t know now you know).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Special class with our sweet Pablo from Tenerife- he talked about his passion for seeds, being part of a local seed bank association, he had much to share on the importance of seed network, selecting, processing and storing seeds of different species, to preserve, maintain but also encourage local bio-diversity as part of our cultural heritage.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Fascinating to see how all the layers interconnect and interact with each other to create a healthy garden or eco-system, for the body and soul.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Speaking of body and soul, we took a few days off to enjoy the island of Sao Miguel and its magical beauty.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">The old forest at Lagoa do Congro welcomed us with an abundance of mushrooms, moss and ferns that made me feel like Alice in Wonderland (look for the mythical “portal” above the lake).</span></p><p style="background-color: white; direction: ltr; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: start;"><span face="arial, sans-serif">Terra Nostra botanical garden enchanted us with its ancient trees and rare plants, blue lotuses and monkey puzzles (you can eat the nut).
