🌿✨ Eco-Glamming an Old Favorite ✨🌿
One of the things our recent Permaculture Pinup mini retreat reminded us is that education isn’t something you create once and place on a shelf. In true permaculture fashion, we observe, interact, gather feedback, and continue refining.
The retreat wasn’t just teaching permaculture. It was permaculture in action.
The small group allowed us to see what sparked curiosity, what inspired conversation, and what people wanted to explore further. One thing that became clear is that many people are hungry for practical guidance about what can be grown locally for food, medicine, resilience, and abundance.
So rather than simply reposting an older Green Wave House resource as follow-up material, we decided to give it a little Permaculture Pinup eco-glam treatment. 💄🌺🌿
The result is a fresh new graphic highlighting some of our favorite regional staple plants and useful species for food forests, home medicine, and regenerative living.
Sometimes the information doesn’t need to change. Sometimes it just needs a new outfit.
We hope this updated piece inspires more people to look around their homes, neighborhoods, and communities and ask:
“What grows well here?”
“What nourishes people here?”
“What belongs in a resilient local landscape?”
The future is not miracle mono cropping but diverse systems that don't go out of style.
Although many of these would be good for possibly many areas in Costa Rica, this list is intended specifically for our Costa Rican neighbors in the vicinity of Cobano and surrounding, in Southern Nicoya (SONIC).
