Still following pertinent messages and links from the Digest here. Having
turned seventy earlier this year I feel as if life is slowing down a bit
so am cutting back on design work to focus more on an ongoing green burial
project at the Bridget Center in Kewauskum Wisconsin. Have learned how to
bioremediate cremains and interred both my mother's ashes and my wife
Debby's ashes there earlier this year at a restoration project for
eastern woodland forest I have designed. Will also be contributing to both
a prairie and oak savanna restoration at the site. At home this site
continues to be adapted to ecological realities going even beyond what we
outlined in Integrated Forest Gardening, Halsey, Ruddock, Weisman, Chelsea
Green, 2014. Changes are being made as nurse species have served their
purpose and are being removed as the trees and shrubs beneath are reaching
their potentials. That and a realization that some species just did not
work out as planned.The bigger project of concern is my ongoing research
and data entry for useful plant species at the Natural Capital Plant
Database. I edit and/or add fifty new species per month, every month of
the year. This database is used extensively by United Designers in their
projects for ecological restoration globally and is available for everyone
at rates from absolutely free up to full designer level which gives access
to more advanced design tools. It's not my site. I am just an
employee/editor. Access here: Welcome (permacultureplantdata.com)

Hola Christopher,
you certainly appear like a great info and genetic ressource source to me!
(in regards to the project I described in my other post). So brace yourself
for me flooding you with questions and seed requests?

By the way, have a look at the books offered by Chelsea Green. Very many

I am still keeping up with this list.
And I am aboout to break -for me personally- new ground permaculturally.
I arrived in Peru a few days ago, with the intention to move into a
particular area in the cloudforest andean foothills on the East side of the
Andes. Several things are attractive as well as challenging there:
a) the climate - it is truly tropical with -due to elevation mas o menos
800m above sea level- relatively cool nights and frequent temperature
swings.
b) the setting - there is secondary growth forest for sale, with plenty of
slopes and water and high dynamic fertility. It is as far in the sticks as
you can get in Peru - hardware stores or nurseries are VERY few and nothing
in between, many of the plots do not even have access roads - it is
basically bush. And I am well aware of the PC priciple "stay out of the
bush - it is already in good order". At the same time this is exactly part
of my motivation to go there, because
c) I know of at least 3 different groups of people who either already have
or want to buy lands there (the one group that already has has 280ha) - AND
as far as I have been gathering from afar even though they cherish the
priciples of PC, they seem to have ideas about agriculture and food, that
is not truly forest compatible. This brings me to
d) I want first for myself -as I want to live a life really close to
nature- and a few similarly crazy friends to develop a style of village,
agriculture und subsistence that is as truly forest compatible as the life
of small indigenous tribes in the cloudforest has been for millenia. And
second I want to nudge as well as practically support those mentioned
communities to do likewise - e.g. to adjust their lifestyle to the
landscape rather than adjusting the landscape to their (alien) lifestyle.
e) what I can forsee by now, is that apart from a forest plot as big as
possible (I would not mind it to be several square kilometers, as
everything apart from the corner I intend to carve out a forest compatible
life in will be a provate rexerve anyways), and the plots of the other
communities, it will be a transitional necessity to buy one of the existing
and more or less degraded farms, that do exist alongside the few roads that
lead through the bush. On this farm we (all of the groups intending to
start a really new life as in "new civilization" there) can grow our food
until 1) the food trees, shrubs, vines and other perennials that will be
planted interspersed the existing forest in close proximity of the
village(s) are sufficiently matured to provide -together with a few square
meters of annual gardens right next to the huts- all the needed sustenance,
and 2) we are adjusted in our food and lifestyle habits to this. Also we
can have the nursery that is going to produce all the
se food trees, shrubs, vines and other perennials as well as a shared
workshop, maybe guest rooms etc.
All and any ideas, hints, ressources etc. welcome!
A REQUEST: I used to posess a spanish-english, english-spanish field guide
for all things permaculturally and botanical, I believe it was by a man
named Duke. Can anyone point me to the website I can order it from? I had
it for years and never used it, and just months before this lifechanging
project arose I gave it away.

Trees, grasses and wildlife are returning as Lord Dunsany recreates a
vanished landscape in County Meath
Randal Plunkett strides through the hip-high grass of Dunsany, a
650-hectare (1,600-acre) estate in the middle of Ireland
<https://www.theguardian.com/world/ireland>, trailed by an invisible swarm
of midges and his four jack russell terriers: Tiny, Lumpy, Chow and Beavis
& Butt-Head.
The cattle and sheep are long gone, so too are the lawns and many of the
crops. In their place is a riot of shrubs, flowers and trees, along with
insects and creatures that call this fledgling wilderness their home.
It is probably Ireland <https://www.theguardian.com/world/ireland>?s most
ambitious attempt at rewilding on private land, an attempt to recreate a
vanished landscape in a swath of County Meath, 20 miles north-west of
Dublin.

Yes. I knew him. In fact I met him when I was 21 years old at a party
he wanted to hear. The person he came to the party with was a very
accomplished artist friend from NC who was an important member of the NY
School of Abstract Expressionism art movement.

The Amazonian Ethnobotanical Dictionary presents an exciting new rainforest
book, designed and conceived in the rainforest and dedicated to its
preservation.The book contains concise accounts of the various uses to
which prominent Amazonian plants are put by the local rainforest
inhabitants. Although emphasis is placed on plant foods and forest
medicines, there is also commentary on other relevant applications,
including natural artifacts, house construction, natural pesticides, and
ornamental and fodder plants. More than 1,000 species are covered and over
200 illustrated. An index to Spanish and English names leads to the
scientific name, and the index to plants provides its medicinal
application. There are even suggestions on how to eat palm grubs and how to

*Finalist for 2009 The Council on Botanical & Horticultural Libraries
Literature Award!*
*A Comprehensive Guide Addressing Safety, Efficacy, and Suitability *
About a quarter of all the medicines we use come from rainforest plants and
more than 1,400 varieties of tropical plants are being investigated as
potential cures for cancer. Curare comes from a tropical vine and quinine
from the cinchona tree. A comprehensive guide to safety, efficacy, and
suitability, *Duke?s Handbook of Medicinal Plants of Latin America*
responds to continuing interest in medicinal plants and the potential
remedies they contain.
*Determine Which Species Can Be Used for Specific Targets *
The author of *Green Pharmacy Herbal Handbook and CRC Handbook of Medicinal
Herbs*, James A. Duke covers roughly 500 of the more important Native Latin
American medicinal plants in a highly organized format. After a brief
introduction, each entry contains scientific and colloquial names,
synonyms, reference to illustrations, notes, biological activities,
medicinal indications, dosages, potential hazards, extracts, and
references. This format supplies a starting point for determining which
species can be used for specific targets.
*Better Data Helps You Focus Your Search *
Year-round moderate temperatures, abundant rainfall, and rich soils make
tropical Latin America home to nearly 100,000 of the world?s 300,000 known
species of plants, and therefore home to untold numbers of potential cures.
Focusing on 500 of the most well-known and well-studied plants, this book
helps you focus your search for ammunition against constantly evolving
pathogens and newly emerging diseases.

just like the terrorists are still with us on every flight since 9/11, I
am afraid the authorities in power are too fond of the way fearful people
can be governed, to let this thing recede. And I hope I am wrong!

I am a believer of another order in Permaculture. Mollison's statement that
the only limit to a permaculture design is the imagination of the designer
really turned me on. He was way ahead of his time.
Most of you in this list that I heard from over the years are actively
involved in the Permaculture movement as PDC instructors, consultants,
authors, gathering/convocation organizers and of course practitioners. My
activities were mostly related to communications resources and archive
building. I have done extensive work on my 6 acre farm property and will
post some photos of it from time to time. I did a lot of earthworks
building, ponds,
terraces, field leveling, big berm building and more.

I pay attention when any arrive.
My concerns are enclosed agriculture in deserts (tunnels), increasing the
permaculture crops near me (such as pinyon, cactus and wolfberries), and
breeding for drought and salt tolerant plants in pinus, euphorbia, prunus,
and ribes.

I'm still here and have missed the postings on this list. Glad to see some
movement! It takes a lot of time and energy to keep up with something like
this, so your work is much appreciated, Lawrence.
My own efforts in permaculture are almost wholly focused on keeping the
magazine going. Permaculture Design is a key networking tool for North
American permaculture. You can always find upcoming PDCs and workshops
listed in our print magazine (yes, the Events and Calendar listings are a
free service to the community) and online (also free). Four times a year,
we strive to present a useful compendium of articles, many of which are
focused on a particular theme. May's theme was Mutual Aid. November's issue
will be built around forestry. Anyone with a project in woodlands
management, sustainable forestry, wildcrafting, agroforestry, or anything
else forestry-related (very timely and has been for the past 500 years if
not longer), consider writing an article for the issue. And for future
issues. We're reader-supported... there is no paid content from
professional writers, and our pages aren't filling up with advertising.
Incidentally, we finally completed the first generation digital archive of
all back issues up through #118. This goes all the way back to the
beginning of the Activist in the heady days of early permaculture in North
America. Inspiring to read if you have the time. These are available for
free download to all subscribers.
