We intend to share what has been shared with us in the past, demonstrate that a new paradigm is possible and doing thus through collective actions and permaculture ethics. We love straw, we love clay and we try to promote self-regulation and responsability, initiative and trust.
THE ORIGINS
In Italy this type of agriculture is very well known, and is having a lot of success.
Synergistig Agriculture, developed by Emilia Hazelip (spanish
permaculturist) in France, where she lived, is an "experiment" of
Permaculture and Fukuoka's Natural Farming.

Permaculture demonstration gardens at the Oregon State University Student Sustainability Center. As hands-on projects during two PDCs, we installed a 20' diameter herb galaxy spiral, food forest, and annual gardens.
in Lismore, NSW. Australia.
The owner turns to me and asks “Who are all these people?” I whisper
to her while loading the video camera that these people are all
Permaculture Interns from around the world. Canada, the United States
and Europe. They’ve all descended on her little country...
In the last couple years, I have ignored both the grapes and the gooseberries as far as pruning went, probably because I do not live at the property, and was away doing other things. But finally this winter I pruned the two grape vines and the gooseberry bush quite far back. I left at least two b...
We decided that we wanted to build using only Earth-Friendly and Sustainable Methods and, no sooner had we made this decision, we were met with a major obstacle - where and how to live during the years it would take to build suitable shelter.
Most people consider an old, used Mobile Home as havi...

A tropical food forest designed to thrive in a monsoonal (wet/dry) climate, with a nucleus on TWO 1/4 acre suburban blocks (but extending into the bordering properties to give an approximate area approaching 1 acre). Currently still in establishment phase, but will soon be used as a site for tour...
Dave and Kate were both reading the Intro to Pc and came to the bit with an island built from old tyres. It was considered a great idea to slosh around in the mud building the refuge for the birds.
We had some old tyres laying around from a failed project years ago and we laid them out on the b...
There was no chance of getting a full design for my friend's new house
completed in time (before I left Australia). Therefore, what I
provided were some suggestions but warned them they would need to note the
existing plants on the property and monitor the sun, wind, moisture, slope and

For this working bee we welcomed a few new people. We built a no-dig garden bed on top of an old one which was damaged during the flood. Then planted alyssum, egg plant and tomato seedlings. I used some palm fronds to provide some shade for the seedlings to protect them from the often burning sun.
I got to the blitz early afternoon, having some other commitments earlier. I helped manage the construction of the social space, using some large logs as seats and retaining walls for the Taro bog. I was too preoccupied with work to take more photos but there may be some coming from others on fac...
