Homesteading and Permaculture by Paul Wheaton

Paul is with Bo, Fred, Dez and Steven doing a fundraiser for BEL (Bootcamp Experience Log), a rolling fund which pays out to boots who make 100 posts in their BEL thread, while also discussing the new GAMCOD programme and a new big prize for a new boot that shows up and sticks around. Support […]

Paul and Katie continue to talk about Hawaii and how it’s different from Montana, such as the year-round growing season, (although there are ways to extend it if need be) and potential for massive 10″ rainfall in a night. And the lack of parasites in Montana. That’s a big plus. Support the podcast on Patreon […]

Paul and Katie skip clambering up to the caldera and instead sit down to talk about Katie’s experience with her now home of Hawaii, the problems caused by the prevailing wind, the wet and dry sides of the islands, fungal and ant plagues, and the side-effects of becoming a state.

Paul and Katie take another hike up to the caldera, this time discussing how Paul’s advocacy for Rocket Mass Heats can have him coming across as a bit of a snake oil salesman (heck even Katie dismissed them at first) and a few hypotheses as to why that is. Support the podcast on Patreon Show […]

Paul and Katie head up the caldera and talk about the progress of on-site food growing after spending so long just building the soil, potential price changes for accommodation, and maybe the start of new plans to add a range of luxuriance to the accommodation on offer.

Paul, JR, and Beau all sit down and go over this years Permaculture Technology Jamboree progress, including the new pumphouse for the well and how it’s kept from freezing, a partner for mycelium insulation, a new Sepp Holzer style root cellar, the roundwood pavilion, and more!

Paul continues his discussion with Steven and Clay, talking about the BRK’s replacement program known as the Bootcamp Experience Log (BEL) and what it lets them do, the boot’s standard of living, what they need to progress the world domination plan, and the next step thereof.

Paul continues his chat with Steven and Clay about Wheaton labs, boot camp, summer/winter coping tactics (slushies ftw!), comparisons to the WWOOF program, BRK’s new replacement known as the BEL program, and welcoming train wrecks to bootcamp, so long as they’re up to standard and leave their baggage at the gate.

Paul talks with Steven and Clay at the labs during labor day weekend, about how the lab is developing into a permaculture theme park of sorts, the new hybrid pickup from a benefactor, and what they were all doing before they came to The Lab as seppers.
