Enjoy :)

Further details on Sepp's hugelkulter raised beds can be found here.

Farm for the Future

Here's a great BBC documentary made by Rebecca Hosking and Tim Green in 2009, which shows how peak oil will affect farming and food distribution.

Rebecca and Tim look at how a return to local food production, diversification in crops, organic methods and regenerative agriculture will help us cope.

Milkwood Permaculture Design Certificate

For those of you who live in or around Sydney and are interested in Permaculture, do yourself a favour and book in for the next Permaculture Design Certificate course run by the guys at Milkwood.

These courses are not cheap, so you really need to be sure that you're choosing one where you will get real value for money: where you will be learning from those with tried and tested PRACTICAL Permaculture experience.

If you attend a Milkwood course, then you can be guaranteed that you are learning from some of the best.

Nick Ritar in particular actually has a background in systems architecture, which enables him to translate the more difficult to understand elements of Permaculture design into a language that the layman can understand.

Here is Nick at the TEDx Event in Canberra last year:

Oh, and here's a great video from Milkwood that shows you what can be expected on the course! :)
