An educational resource lost?

IT IS what?… sometime maybe a couple decades ago and we are in Maleny, the funky little town in the hills behind the Sunshine Coast. I don’t know what it is like now, but back then there were perhaps a couple of those shops that I find it hard to classify. You know, those that sell craft products, nicknacks, a few books, essential oils, incense that you smell as soon as you walk in and a mishmash of other colourful stuff. Whenever it was, we walk into a shop and look around. Just about to walk out, I notice a set of cards and pick them up to take a look. Permaculture Style Water-saving Gardening Ideas it says. I part with my $5.50 and walk out with a set 16 cards in my pocket. <h1>Cards of ideas</h1> I don’t usually do impulse buys. As my partner Fiona would tell you, I can take weeks reading reviews and assessing something before buying, or not. Sure, that is for substantial purchases but even with minor ourchases I have been known to look and then go mull over the purchase while I down a coffee. These cards, though, were cheap enough not to bother with that drawn-out process. I look at the cards and read that they are printed on recycled paper and that, as the cover claims, they illustrate DIY approaches to water management in the garden. How do I classify them? Informal works of illustrative art, I suppose would be a more or less accurate description. They are line drawings coloured with water colour paint. <a href="https://medium.com/permaculture-3-0/an-educational-resource-lost-7e52adc87e39">Website</a>
