plant a tree – and sing the Permaculture ABC

October 8, 2020

The #permaculture ABC
first plant a tree
then one two three
the birds the bees and you and me
we can not live without a tree

we care for Mother Earth
we care for people
and we share
we follow Mother Nature
and live happy everywhere

Earth care. People care. Fair share. Future care.

Celebrate by planting trees!

October 3, 2019

very good idea from Leah Namugerwa in Uganda:

“Last week I gave 100 #Birthdaytrees to Mr. Muwanguzi. This week I am going to give 200 to two people who have decided to celebrate their birthdays by planting trees.

I call upon more people to do the same. If you have no trees to plant, I’ve them. DM me now”
