Well folks here goes!!

I dream of developing a permaculture garden on our one+ hectacre of land at Robertson, which is about a 100km drive south of Sydney and up Macquarie pass to the Southern Highlands.

Not only is permaculture my dream, I also have another dream of building a straw bale home on our beautiful land.

The land is so fertile and well watered that I truly think I could grow almost anything on it.

The first step in achieving these two dreams is to find someone on the southern side of Sydney or near country areas who can help me translate the Permaculture books that I have into reality on my land.

Then I have to find someone who can help me develop the straw bale construction idea into a Development Application that I can get through the Local Government processes. That should be a bit hard in some ways because straw bale apparently has not been widely used thus far in New South Wales.

Does anyone have useful information on Straw Bale construction methods etc???

I'd sure appreciate all and any feedback.
Best wishes
Robert Jensen
