Hi

I would have to agree with Margo. I, too, subscribed hoping for some
interesting discussions. We live on half an acre on the outskirts of
Perth, and try to base our garden/life on permaculture principles. We're
just starting out and are very open to friendly advice. I'm more
interested in ideas, what works/doesn't work for people, contacts etc.
Is this the right list for me?
