Description

HI all,
Im glad to be part of this great community!
I am a farmer now but have been a music teacher in the past, I still play with a Balinese gamelan orchestra in Montreal, also worked a bit as an electrician but prefer gardening when I can, especially trying out different plant varieties and saving seeds.
I have volunteered on farms in Asia and Brazil, also visited others in Africa and Central America over the years... but I'm still learning. I do have a permaculture design certificate but not a whole lot of practice.
