I was just fashioning a necklace for myself prior to reading this.
The necklace itself is from some Stinging Nettle I uprooted.
- I replanted the roots.
- I ate some leaves.
- I used the rest of the leaves for tea.
- I saved the seeds for planting.
- I made cordage from the stalk and it is now a necklace.
The feature of the necklace is actually a spur from a rooster that we butchered.
- I used the spur for this necklace.
- We saved the heart and meat to eat later.
- I already ate the liver.
- The feet will be used to make broth.
- The pigs ate the rest.
I love the smell of sustainability in the evening.
Sustainability does not mean preventing people from utilizing the resources that are provided upon the earth, it means teaching them how to do so properly.
Nice post!
Wow!
Fantastic comment!
I know exactly what you mean and have embodied ZERO waste for over a decade. Unfortunately it is VERY rare to find especially in "civilized" countries.
There are still parts of the word where this is "normal" instead of CRAZY!
Hahahahahahaha
Love you Brother!
Oh to be considered normal again... or, for once anyway!
Hahhahahahahahahaahahhaaha its over rated, but hey anything rare has some appeal from time to time?
Rare and precious my friend!
