The event started off with warm up, stretching and training exercises. Following that, there was a property tour with examples of Permaculture Principles. Permaculture principles are derived from observing nature. They are things we see happening in natural ecosystems that we want to copy. We observe nature and try to mimic what it does.
Lunch was hosted by Nutiva (http://nutiva.com/) whose mission statement is "Nurishing People and Planet". (If you haven't tried their cocunut oil, it is really tasty and healthier for you than Vegetable or Olive Oil...oh and it's great for baking!). Nutiva provided a superfood lunch of Red Lettuce Salad, Mushroom and Ginger Soup and Rice Wraps with a variety of carrots, bell peppers, onion and other fresh yummy veggies. During lunch http://blackfeetmusic.com/ and Shylah Ray Sunshine (http://www.reverbnation.com/shylahraysunshine) blessed us with her angelic voice and attention grabbing lyrics revolving around awareness and achieving a higher consciousness. We then did a little meditation and energizing movement in the garden before continuing to gather information on Composting. I want to thank everyone involved and want to continue to support in anyway possible.
I later found out that 2 weeks ago Don Miguel Ruiz was at the estate. Don Miguel Ruiz has been such an inspiring author to me and many people and felt honored to have been invited to the Elevate Estate. Once again, Thank You all! :) For Composting info, please visit this informative site: http://www.howtocompost.org/
