Over the last couple of months, we’ve been cooking up a re-design of our top food forest with Harris. Once we move into our tinyhouse, this food forest will be right outside our back door. So we want to get serious about making it a gorgeous place that drips with fun and food. Up until n...

Over the 5 weeks spent with Pierre I observed how he managed us helpers, his projects, his family life and himself.  I imagine the whole process could be quite physically and emotionally rewarding but also draining - dealing with various people from all walks of life, interrupting your routine, s...

We hosted 5 volunteers for a midwinter earthbuilding mission. These brave souls endured snow on the mountains, early morning frosts, a warm spell and recently rain! They have helped us to finish a major wall and final plaster on half the classroom. Our Permaculture and Natural Building courses n...

Summer highs of 45 degrees centigrade and winter lows of -7 degrees centigrade have been measured here. we have experimented with indigenoue Southern African plant...

Our project was funded through the Threshold Foundation to make a 17 million litre surface dam. After the dam was completed, we entered into a two year drought - the worst in decades! Our fold mountain landscape does not leave much opportunity for Keyline implementation, but we managed to creat...
