permaculture

[Tripp Tibbetts <slowfoodguy@yahoo.com>]

I'm in Spokane, WA, and would really love to go to this class.  Anybody out 
there want to share travel expenses?
 
Thanks,
Tripp Tibbetts



 
Growing bumper crops on the ashes of a burnt forest does not make one a great 
farmer.

Hello Everyone,

We took off from teaching this year to turn the food production workshop
into a DVD foramt. We are starting to sell in limited quantities to
'friendly' users. The website has just recently gone live. Check it out
at www.backyardfoodproduction.com.

Cheers,

Marjory


This video set is for those seeking self-reliance in growing their own
food. The project was developed by a family that depends on these
systems for a significant part of their diet. The techniques used are
drawn from organic gardening, permaculture, agroforestry, indigenous
teachings, historical anecdotes, and missionary work in developing
countries.

The set includes a DVD with over 110 minutes of video, and a bonus CD
ROM with some 60+ documents that support and complement the information
on the DVD. The DVD is a video tutorial covering the following topics:
