A good meeting

18 July 2019

Our friend Lin had an exhibition opening at Z bar in Lefkas Town on Thursday.  She collects wild flowers (1 in 10, only common ones) and presses them to make lovely expressions of the local flora.  We went to the opening and were very pleased to meet someone we've long wanted to know.  His name is Aris, and he lives in a village on the hills near here, collecting the local wild herbs to make tinctures and salves. He and his new assistant, Will, were very interesting to talk to, about local varieties of herbs, trees, and even the permaculture hero - comfrey.  When it is cool enough to walk in the hills we will go to visit them and learn everything we can.
