  Will Hooker's Urban Permaculture Garden
             When we covered the concept of Permaculture here, Warren 
described it as 'biomimicry for food'. While permaculture can be utilized 
beyond food production systems (see the Transition Towns movement, for 
example), it seems fair to say that gardening and agriculture are still a 
central focus. Will Hooker, Professor of Landscape Design at NC State 
University, lives on 1/5 of an acre in downtown Raleigh, NC, yet manages to 
grow a staggering amount of food. Part of his garden design includes an 
ingenious system for a partially self-feeding, self-cooling chicken run that 
also supports the rest of the garden.
