Lisa (and others),
What I'm hoping to find is pictures from zones 1 and 2 that will make
the readers think, "If permaculture looks that good, then I want to do
it in my yard." Photos that show what an attractive space designed using
Pc looks like. So shots of perennial and tree crop gardens that have
flowers, fruits, or other attractive plants in them, social spaces
(benches, patios) that are integrated with food or habitat, nice looking
water catchment, that sort of thing. I'm focusing on quarter-acre yards
or less, but even if your place is bigger, photos from the more
intensive inner zones would be fine. Does that help?
Thanks,
Toby
