Green Wizardry with Mike

Green Wizards: Individuals who embrace the task of learning, practicing, and thoroughly mastering a set of mostly forgotten skills to use and to share with others.

In this workshop, Mike will talk about some of the tools from the appropriate tech toolkit which includes: Intensive organic gardening with its support technologies of composting, season extenders, and low-tech food preservation and storage methods; simple solar greenhouses, which provide heat for homes as well as food for the table; other retrofitted passive solar heating technologies; solar water heating; methods for conserving hot or cool air with little or no energy input; and a good deal more along the same lines, all of it geared toward backyard gardens, basement workshops, easily available resources, and modest budgets.
