Earthy

I had the great privilege to listen to this wordsmith at the YP Summit in Bend, Oregon. Mosley's ability to speak to the core of the human condition and where we can go from here blew my mind... I hope his message moves you as much as it has me.

Learn from a couple who successfully thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail (watch the video) and NEVER GOT A BLISTER! They share their wisdom and tips and tricks here. Oh, and if you think they must be veteran backpackers, you're wrong. The longest camping trip they had done prior to hiking the AT was 3 nights!

"75% of the people who finish a thru-hiked the AT each season have not spent more than three consecutive days outside"

"Fund the trail you want to hike, not the other way around. Not, hike the funds you have."

Marianna Milkis-Walker shares with us how her company has taken out the headache of what to wear and minimized your closet in the process.  

Through the use of Epytom's Facebook Messenger Bot you can enter your wardrobe once and have it dress you every day thereafter if you'd like. Simply check the current weather conditions, the occasion, and the bot will create an outfit for you. This saves you decision capital for more important decisions you'll have to make throughout the day. Save up to 1.5 hours each week by letting Epytom "dress you". 

There are about 700 unique outfits that this bot can create with 40 pieces (including shoes and accessories). Goodbye, "I have nothing to wear crisis".

For this Urban Farming Friday I had the great pleasure to speak with Queen Bee, Lisa Graham of YYC Beeswax. I had a lot to learn about this sweet topic, and Lisa didn't disappoint.

I had no idea how many products bees produced. Did you know that there are pollen traps as doormats for the bees? The pollen simply falls off of their feet as if they wiped their feet before entering their honeycomb home!
