About Me

Name: CARRIE SCHADEN

I've volunteered at Potowat, United Indian Health Center's food garden, with T and Ed. Potowat is an integrated vision of environmental health, community health, and personal health as it weaves together ecological restoration, native plant cultivation for the tribes traditions, food gardening, fitness programs, Diabetes patient programs, and a high tech health facility soon to be accompanied by a child center.
I've also interned at Deep Seeded Community Farm with Eddie Tanner.  Eddie, author of "The Humboldt Kitchen Gardener" and "Food is Good Medicine", not only offers interns a chance to get hands on experience, but he also gives weekly lecture/discussions on methods, soil fertility considerations, and more.  
I'm a garden experimenter at home, in the middle of town I've got chickens and ducks, artichokes, fruit trees, and other perennials .  I love permaculture practices and watching Bill Mollison videos.  
I've collected polypore medicinal mushrooms that are a good overall health tonifier in Chinese medicine.  Polypore's like ganoderma help with blood circulation, fight cancer, strenghtens the immune system,  detox, and regulates the liver and intestine. I've been really inspired by Paul Stamens "Mycellium Running" and "Mushroom Cultivator" and I hope to work with mycological restoration of heavy metal or oil spill contaminated areas in the future.  
 I've tried food preservation at home so that I can eat local out of season.  I've made kimchi and pickles and frozen fruit.
