After designing my submission for the PDC I realised that my lazy way of gardening I've been doing for years was the right way to go. With a few additions and tweeks to my property mainly in water catching, slowing and storage, I can achieve the original desire I had for this place. Now I am ...

Since the end of March I have been attending Geoff's excellent online PDC! The entire experience has been incredible, even the major amount of time spent on my final design submission! It has been hands down the best permaculture learning environment I have participated in!! I am excited to add m...

been a while since i had time to write, just got my notice today that my project was accepted and my certificate is in the mail. Probably one of the best learning experiences of my life, and i went back to listen to Geoffs instructions for the project after turning it in, and suddenly a lot of i...

We are indeed growing!  In less than two months, what had begun to appear as an ill-conceived idea has now completely turned around, and is heading full-steam into the most innovative and integrative course program I and all who are assisting can imagine! This course has been developing over the...

I am new to Permaculture. Right now I'm not sure exactly what my future holds. In my profile I checked the "Aid work" and "Consultant" boxes. This is to indicate that I have a desire to do these things. In future updates I hope to show how I have made a difference in people's lives :)

We've moved the focus of the community endeavour down the northern end of the farm. It's a new start, with a defined permaculture outlook. There is a new shed to go up, dams to be built, and an extensive aquaponics system to develop. We'll be housing WOOFers, and other permaculture volunteers.

With Geoff Lawton's approval and Elaine Ingham's advice, this should be the best series for young or new learners of Permaculture, providing easy steps towards the college programs using Bill Mollison's Permaculture: A Designer's Manual. It will include a focus on the soil food web and microscopy...

I'm really excited to be helping to organize this PDC in October in Spain! The last one in June was a really lovely, learning and empowering experience!  

We moved out to rural Manitoba nearly three years ago, and it was with great pleasure that I noticed a healthy, mature Sugar Maple in our back yard. (They don't often make it through our winters...) Of course, I HAD to tap the maple to make syrup, and while I was at it, I thought I'd conduct a fe...

I have a lot of dreams, and a lot of projects in my "to do" cue... all of them require time, and most of them require building materials, which are increasingly expensive.  A little over a year ago, I purchased a small Woodmizer LT15 bandsaw mill in order to have a source of lumber for these proj...
