Lots to do at Kamiah Permaculture, if only the weather would cooperate! As I write this it is snowing outside. Before that it seemed like Spring was just around the corner and now record cold temperatures are expected this week. There is wood to be cut for the small greehouse project. We are expa...
Our 44 acre farm has about 25 acres of pasture and an additional 8 acres that could also be utilized for grazing or hay production. Before we came here, everything but the 8 acre field was overgrazed annually by 25 head of cattle for at least 12 years. The 8 acre field planted in intermediate whe...
These are some of the varietes which have been found in local farmers markets or in villages where these fruits are still a part of the local's diet and income. These are photos taken during the research for the Fruit Heritage Project.
Of the several thousand Members of the Nemenhah Band, most live in urban or suburban environments. Relatively few live in rural settings or have farm holdings. Our projects, therefore, do not consider large-scale food production. We don't have the space, nor the inclination. We leave that to ...

We intend to leave five of our ten acres completely in wilderness forest. One thing that struck me about the Oak and Hickory forest is that, for ever acre of second growth you have there will be .8 cords of limbs and branches that fall each year. This windfall is surplus energy and can be utili...
This
week was an incredible learning experience with an incredibly knowledgeable and

how to teach the 72hr PDC curriculum, but also gave a great insight into a wide
range of both teaching and learning styles, working...

While digging the plant holes for the plantings in (hopefully) the first week of march, I noticed that I didn't consider water harvesting principles and methods enough.

Whenever I have come across references to zoning in relation to honeybees, it is invariably used to decide where hives should be placed. As a beekeeper and a Permaculturalist, it is also a handy tool to help to decide where to plant different bee forage crops.
Sitting here on a wet, cold, Englis...
