permaculture

[Michael Pilarski <friendsofthetrees@yahoo.com>]

Hi John,

I'd like to contribute an article or two for the seeds issue.  I grow, 
harvest and clean out between 60 and 80 kinds of seeds most years.  I have 
been selling seeds commercially off and on for 30 years +.  

Right now I have a half-written article on letting plants self seed in the 
garden. Volunteer gardening. I could write up a little something on cheap and 
easy tools for seed cleaning.  And I could put together a reference list of 
books on the topic. Not comprehensive,  just a few favorites. 


How does that sound?  thoughts?

anyone doing an article on seed libraries.  gotta have one of those.

Subject: [permaculture] Seeds
 

The next issue of the Permaculture Activist focuses on "Seeds," which 
includes seedsaving, germination, plant propagation, seedballs, the economics 
of starting your own seed company, seed banks, seeds as food, sprouts as 
food, and more.  Use your imagination.

We'd like this issue to be a go-to resource with lots of useful information 
on seedsaving and allied sciences.  We need in-depth articles that teach 
readers how to go about saving and planting seeds.

Deadline for submissions is Dec. 1.  Article+photos+bio.  If you have 
expertise or relevant experience with seeds..., perhaps you'll consider 
sharing what you know with the permaculture community by writing for the 
Activist.  Please query first before writing an article.  Thanks.

John

Learn how to map your land using open source software and freely
available data. This material was presented in a workshop at Oregon
State University last year, and is now available on CD as a self-paced
course.

The course introduces digital mapping tools and techniques (Geographic
Information Systems or GIS), and how small landowners and permaculture
designers can use these tools with freely available data for site
planning. The course provides an excellent introduction to GIS for any
small landowner interested in visualizing terrain of the land,
planning layout of buildings and gardens, and using GIS maps in Google
Earth. You will learn about freely available aerial photos,
topographic data, soil maps, and other spatial layers, as well as open
source software used in this course. The course material includes all
GIS data, step by step tutorials, mapping examples, sources of free
data, and email support. More details about course contents at
