Convert an abandoned-degraded property to a productive site with food forests, aquaculture, livestock and poultry.

Conversion of a denuded mountainside to a food and lumber forest for conservation and recreation.

Last month I tried the Berkeley method for the first time. I have been very inconsistent with the turning days and it is taking longer than 18 days. The pile got too hot between turnings and when I did the 3-5h turnings, after 3-4 days instead of 2, it smelt a little bit like ammonia. After a mon...

We want to congradulate our most recent graduates of our annual Permaculture Teacher's Training. We had an amazing week together and I'm proud to say they will all do the permaculture community justice.

We want to improve a site called ‘Esperanza para los Niños’ to demonstrate Permaculture principles in action. It will emphasize the use of biological resources to lower energy costs and provide some of the need for food and water on the site. The costs savings from these improvements will be rein...

In February of 2016, I am expecting the delivery of a new and complete Full Flow Hive, which I admit was an impulse buy, and may result in being an expensive introduction to beekeeping. However, I look at it as motivation to do something I want, but put off due to concerns of effort and the added...
