Zero One has been host to more than a hundred and forty guests (and rising) so far, and several of them have been bloggers. SuperForesters Jenni and Marie-Eve came out to Zero One for a visit this Summer, and both had wonderful things to say about it.
Jenni made these films, and wrote this incredible journal of her time here: Hawaii – An Adventure in SuperForesting
Zero One: A SuperForest Adventure
And Marie-Eve posted on her blog, A Commitment to Shine – Zero One: A Taste of Paradise
“I said I’ve been experiencing gardening, but it has been so much more! It’s even more about pure and simple friendship and abundance. Abundance of food and of beauties from Mother Nature, and abundance of love and joyful moments, from such a giver community. Everyday has brought its lot of awe moments. I’ve simply fallen in love. With the island, with the people, with the way I was living it.
Thus, Zero One is just popping out right now. It has had its first (always the longest) observation time. I’ve been arriving there right into the real big “action time”! While I’ve been there, in just a couple of days, we created so much! Take a look to Jackson’s post RIGHT HERE: I promise you’ll be amazed! One day, we received a truck load of 30 cubic yards of compost and mulch, which we transformed, almost by magic, into two big and three medium gardens, plus into a couple more of smallest ones all around some trees. And how all this happened? In only five days or so, in connecting with some other friends and neighbors who came by to give a hand, and by using no machinery or electric tool!! Isn’t it wonderful?! Just using our hands, our heart, shovels, forks, a wheel barrel and a “oo bar”, which is a tool used by the natives to dig and plant. It felt so good to have done all that in listening to the birds singing, to the wind blowing and sometimes the thin rain falling. Aaaaah! We could hear the enjoyment of each of us by our deep breath intakes or singings. Nobody has been rushing, we all had so much fun in doing it and we shared a lot. Each day, we even had time to go to the beach, to practice our balance on the “slack-line”, to go in town for some special needs, or to go for a walk of harvests (everywhere we were going, fruits trees were surrounding us: mangos, papayas, lychees, passion fruits. What have I said before? ABUNDANCE!! Yes!).”
Remember SuperForesters, Zero One is for all of us. It is a living, breathing baby SuperForest. Come and enjoy it with us, if you are able. Come and contribute to its evolution. We eagerly await your arrival, with smiles, hugs, and aloha. And thank you ladies for your wonderful words and energy! Love,
-Jackson, Melissa, Mea, Augustine, Naia and everyone else at Zero One. (which is currently Gus, Paul, Rex, Juliette, Eric, and Cameron)
