• What if It's Not Dystopia? With Permaculture Elder Linda Woodrow

  It’s Permaculture Week, friends and phascogales! And what better way to celebrate than a big old heart to heart with permie elder Linda Woodrow. Linda is the author of 470, The Permaculture Home Garden, and the Witches Kitchen blog which is now in its 17th year. She is humble and extraordinary, and I think you’ll dig what she has to say about finding our niches, neighbours, purpose and freedom in the throes of collapse.🧙‍♀️LINKY POOSLinda Woodrow’s home on the webLinda Woodrow’s blog The Witches Kitchen470 ~ Linda WoodrowThe Permaculture Home Garden ~ Linda WoodrowPermaculture: A Designer’s Manual ~ Bill MollisonRetroSuburbia ~ David HolmgrenPermaculture One ~ Bill Mollison & David HolmgrenDonut Economics ~ Kate Raworth***Show Reskillience some love on Patreon***

• Slow Textile Revival with the makers of The Nettle Dress

  One of today’s guests spent seven years spinning a dress from stinging nettles and the other spent five years documenting the process. The result was the incredibly moving documentary The Nettle Dress — which I have now seen twice — co-created by Dylan Howitt and Allan Brown. It’s a love letter to old skills, hand crafts and everything that cannot be hurried; to fibersheds, foraged threads, gentle stories, and the magic of following your heart.Dylan Howitt is a BAFTA nominated filmmaker whose roll call includes BBC, Netflix and Discovery. Allan Brown is a textile artist and subject of the film whose steady commitment to disrupting consumer culture is contagious.It’s hard to sing The Nettle Dress’s praises highly enough without shattering a window, but I truly hope you’re moved to watch it after this conversation, perhaps with a posse of pals and a cauldron of nettle soup.🧙‍♀️ LINKY POOS ***Watch The Nettle Dress***The Nettle Dress’s home on the webThe Nettle Dress on InstagramShort film & group ~ Nettles for TextilesFlaxland UK**Support Reskillience on Patreon***
