Chickenshack, founded in 1994 is a housing co-op based in North Wales. It has a long standing commitment to permaculture design and has hosted many related courses, gatherings and events there since then. I am a founding member and this is my blog of some of what I have learned along the way.
Thanks to Kathryn Hill for this beautiful Fly Agaric specimen. Of course most of the Amanita family are pretty toxic, but this one A. Muscaria has a really wild history. Its a powerful hullucinogen, and gives an ingester huge amounts of energy as well as visions and transcentental states of mind. Famously used by the invading Norsemen to wind them selves up in to Berserker fury!
