A Message From Skeeter Michael Pilarski:
Hello NW Permaculture Friends,
I just started a fund raiser for a new skylodge. My old one is now at the end of its journey.
I really need people to donate money to get the ball rolling. Even a small donation just to build the list of people contributing would be helpful.
Thanks,

The Skylodge
For years, a simple yet extraordinary structure has stood at the heart of gatherings that bring people together to share knowledge, music, stories, and dreams for a better world. The Skylodge—a spacious, weathered canvas lodge—has been more than just a shelter. It has been a sanctuary, a classroom, a council chamber, and a place where ideas take root and grow into action.
What Happens in Sky Lodge
Under its canopy, people have learned about permaculture, herbal medicine, ecosystem restoration, and the ancient wisdom of living in harmony with the land. They’ve sat in circles, weaving relationships across generations and traditions. They’ve sung, debated, healed, and envisioned a future where humans live in right relationship with the Earth.
We are raising funds to replace the Skylodge so that it can continue to serve as the heart of these gatherings for years to come. This isn’t just about buying a tent—it’s about ensuring that the work and vision it has sheltered can continue. It’s about preserving a space where people can come together to learn, to dream, and to take action for the Earth.
Its About All of Us
Michael Pilarski, affectionally known to us as Skeeter—who has spent decades creating spaces for knowledge-sharing, community, and Earth healing, knows that the work is never about just one person—it’s about all of us. And so, in the spirit of community, he asks: Will you help rebuild this space so that the work can continue? And those of us who have experienced the magic of this place know its value. A new Skylodge will mean more gatherings, more knowledge shared, more connections forged, and more hope for the future.
Together Lets Keep This Living Space for Earth Healing and Community to thrive.
