We are NE Portland neighbors educating ourselves, experimenting, and taking steps toward a more self-sufficient lifestyle. We're interested in everything from heirloom vegetables to trying out different kinds of preservation methods. From bees to chickens, compost to raised beds, water conservation to minimal waste this is a group for people who want to explore possibilities. We're looking forward to meeting you. Cheers,

What's better than beer? Not much- knitting and drinking beer is pretty frickin' awesome. All levels, sexes, and ages are invited, and I am hoping for a mix of beginner and expert knitters. Everyone is welcome!

This is a group for anyone interested in living more self-sufficiently and sustainably. Let's learn from each other about: growing a successful garden, raising backyard poultry and small livestock, small outdoor building projects, sourcing ingredients and supplies, the art of bartering, making things yourself ... and more. All skill levels welcome. *** Most meetups will take place in and near Olympia, WA unless we go on a field trip
