Seashells are an important part of coastal ecosystems: they provide materials for birds' nests, a home or attachment surface for algae, sea grass, sponges and a host of other microorganisms. Fish use them to hide from predators, and hermit crabs use them as temporary shelters.

Design from patterns to details.

By stepping back, we can observe patterns in nature and society. These can form the backbone of our designs, with the details filled in as we go. #permacultureprinciples #permaculturedesign #permaculturegarden #regeneration #regenerativefarming

Have a lot of fruits, flowers or herbs and you don’t know what to do with them?

This is a easy trick you can use to make some lovely tea out of these!

You can buy reusable muslin tea bags or make your own. Just dry the ingredients and put them into the pouch.

A first sign of spring: snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis). The name comes from the Greek ("gala": milk and "anthos": flower) It describes the color of the flower: milk white.
The snowdrop grows rarely in nature today. That is why the plant is a protected species. #nature #snowdrops
