Cross post of my post from elsewhere. I was told y'all might appreciate this.

Hey y'all,

I stumbled across this free extensive course on permaculture by Oregon state university on YouTube. Thought y'all might be interested.

I'm thinking about making a druidism ~~instance~~ community to discuss the practice and share stories and the likes. I'm not strictly opposed to it being a more general nature spirituality instance, depends on what y'all are thinking.

Anybody interested in joining and/or modding one?

Edit: I meant a community, not an instance. Got my Lemmy vocabulary mixed up. My apologies.

Edit 2: The community has been made. Go to !nature_spirituality

Boneset is a pretty common "weed" in the eastern US. It's easy to find in wet, disturbed habitats.

Uses:

-Fever

-Anti inflammation

-Colds

Do NOT consume in large amounts. It has mild liver toxicity and thus should just be used when needed.

This can be the way things are taught, who are the teachers, what a school day would look like, where classes are taught, what things what look like, etc.

I use Fish Emulsion Fertilizer a lot in my own garden. It's organic, and most importantly WORKS. You typically use it for plants bearing fruit (such as tomatoes, watermelon, squash) and not leafy vegetables (spinach, Swiss Chard, etc). It makes the fruits a lot tastier from my experience. I typically buy it from my local farmer's CO-OP, but it's not an uncommon find elsewhere.

Here's a helpful guide on using it: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/garden-how-to/soil-fertilizers/using-fish-emulsion.htm

This is a good introductory article for Solarpunk. If someone asks you "What is Solarpunk?" this is a good place to start.

I've been thinking about Solarpunk spiritualities/philosophies. Not gonna use the word religion here to avoid the negative connotations of that.

I've been practicing druidism way before I ever discovered solarpunk, and I feel like the two are very compatible with each other. Love of nature, do no harm to others, fluid and evolving, open to interpretation.

Any other ideas about already existing spiritual philosophies that are compatible with solarpunk?
