POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

SPI family and friends brought in the new year with a chaotic culinary adventure - 12 courses in total - ranging from octopus to caul fat wrapped quail to sweetbreads and rabbit sausage and ending with an incredible doe backstrap harvested from @couldbejond ‘s backyard and seasoned with January picked juniper berries - Wish the pictures did the food justice - not all courses were a hit - the caul fat wrapped spleen was a glorious failure - but was balanced by the epic and candy like @_ey_nico_ prepared kabota squash - so if y’all know the secret to great spleen preparation let us know! Here’s to a great new year - Spent doing epic shit with the people you love! #shenandoahpermacultureinstitute #seedtotail #nosetotaileating #humansector #permacultureparty

🫧Bubble Bus Update 9.0 🫧

We’ve got so much to share… and yet, the more we build, the less we post. Funny how that works.
This update is from a little while back, but it marks some big progress:
🐑Insulation is in (hello, sheep’s wool! @havelock_wool )
🧑‍🍳Countertop is cut (thank you @andrewdevierscott )
✅Walls are up (thank you @couldbejond )

Every step brings this bus closer to becoming the bubble-filled dream we’ve imagined. We can’t wait to share it with you—at events, in the community, and with every little moment of joy it brings.

Thanks for following along, even when we go quiet.
More updates coming soon… and even more bubbles. 🫧💛

We are so grateful to Beth at the Harrisonburg @homedepot for the generous donation of lumber to the Bubble Bus. Her support gave us exactly what we needed to start building the walls and booth to take the next big step forward!

Home Depot’s belief & support in our mission to spread joy means so much. Knowing that others see the value in what we’re creating together fills us with so much gratitude and motivation.

Endless thanks as well to the DeGaetano boys (pictured here), who have been showing up with heart and muscle - helping us build, haul, and store materials without hesitation. Your kindness and hard work means the world! This project is only possible because of the love and support from folks like you!

Great gathering of Young Farmers in the Valley last night! (They let me in because “young is a state of mind”) Thank you @price_crenshaw and @mariantheagrarian for organizing. Let’s keep this momentum going!

Hi! I wanted to reach out on behalf of @gnarcystore . We've got some awesome jewelry lined up, and I reckon you'd be the perfect fit to rock our latest collection of rugged accessories!

If you dig it, we'd love to hook you up with a trio of pieces on the house! Yup, you read that right – completely FREE!

Just shoot a DM over to our main account @gnarcystore (if you dont see a DM button, just reply to any of their stories), and our guy Shawn will sort you out pronto! But hey, don't sleep on it – spots are filling up fast, and we'd hate for you to miss out on the action! Cheers, mate! 🤙
