The focus of this course is to let go of some of the stereotypical survival teachings and establish a relationship with the earth through the skills of the Hunter-Gatherer. By treating the earth like our home, we can become more comfortable and let go of the conquering notions that the term “surv...

So, it has been a while I wrote here on this site. That does not mean I have not been doing anything interesting to write about. On the contrary, the past few weeks were wonderful and filled with action. After the first workshop 3 others have followed; Sector planning, Designing the field and la...

Video Conversations in Permaculture with Willi Paul. Guest: Melissa Miles, Eastern Pennsylvania Permaculture Guild & SoilKitchen.org.

In the spring of 2010 we undertook to redesign the front and side yards of 2701 from green grass to permaculture wonderfullness.  We covered exisiting grass with cardboard and leaves, buried it with dirt a friend down the street needed to get rid of, and started things up.  There are between 20 a...

So, with all the goodies from the fall harvest, there just wasn't enough space in the fridge in the house to store it all.  So I decided to build a basic root cellar.  It's just a trash can sunk in the ground, but it works like a champ.  The veggies pictured had already been in the root cellar fo...

So, in Boise if build your own well, you don't need a permit and the city doesn't monitor your water usage.  So I decided to use the cold-sink of the greenhouse as my well house and pound a sand point well in.  It is about 19.5 feet deep (water table is 15 feet).  I hooked up a pump and plumbed i...

So, I finished the greenhouse in the summer of 2010 and can't seem to find any pictures of it in it's finished state at the moment.  But, the greenhouse proven its worth by growing straight through a very cold Idaho winter.  Here are some shots of growth in the greenhouse in early February.  No e...

In 2009 I started building a 10' by 12' semi-subterranean, earth-sheltered, passive solar, four-season greenhouse.  Took about ten months to do all the digging, construction and getting it all put together.  I'm still tweaking it, but here are some construction shots.

In the second season of the garden we decided to try creating a no-till bed.  Here is the construction process all the way to seeding.  There is a shot of the bed successfully growing stuff in the last update.

So we had another great bunch of folks and wonderful annual crops in the community garden during its second season in the summer of 2010.  Here's some shots from the start through the end of the early season (forgot to get pictures for the summer harvest).

In February of 2010, members of the Boise Permaculture Guild converged at 2701 North 29th Street to have a tree pruning workshop.  This workshop was led by local fruit tree expert Dwight Allen.  About 20 of us were there and learned all we needed to keep our home orchards pruned and cared for pro...

pasture cropped oats growing in symbiosis with native perennial pastures at Col Seis's farm Grain cropping is something that, for the vast majority of us, is someone else’s problem. We just eat the results; certainly every day, and nearly with every meal. Bread, rice, corn, soy, beans and ...
