    How Surrendering to the Laws of Nature Provides Abundant Success

    I am writing this book because of all of the mis-information about what permaculture principles there are.

    The Permaculture Principles are a way to be good stewards of our world. The animals, the forests, the water, the soil and the atmosphere. Why is that important? I believe we are all connected and related.

    You will learn 7 of the principles that will get your started on living a permaculture lifestyle. It is rewarding and challenging at the same time.
    You will be able to ask me questions and make comments by going to hisfarm.org and leave a comment on the site.

    Enjoy your journey to discovering the type of life that you wish to choose. I hope that you will consider a permaculture lifestyle.

    Thank you

  • Permaculture in Pots: How to Grow Food in Small Urban Spaces

    Permaculture in Pots: How to Grow Food in Small Urban Spaces

    In these times of rising food prices and renewed interest in all things local, growing food in cities is becoming the big urban trend. Permaculture in Pots shows you how to get started with whatever space you have available–appealing to those who feel powerless to meet their own subsistence needs through lack of growing space.

    Month by month we learn what to grow on a balcony or in a container garden, using low impact permaculture principles. It doesn’t matter when you pick up the book and start your journey of container gardening–wherever you are in the year, open the book to that chapter, and it will tell you what you should be doing.

    Each month’s section details things to be done: how to plan ahead for the next season, and which fruit, vegetables, and herbs to be sowing, growing and eating.  There are recipes, photos and anecdotes from the author’s experience growing food on her small balcony in a London suburb. Kemp is warm and self-effacing, and makes an excellent guide. Each month has its own herb, with growing tips and culinary and medicinal uses for each.

    As uncertainty rises about whether those outside the property ladder will ever get to own their own home, Permaculture in Pots gives power and opportunity back to generations who are becoming more aware of the need of self-sufficiency, and yet find themselves in rented homes with concrete where gardens once were.

    Peter Andrews is a racehorse breeder and farmer credited with remarkable success in converting degraded, salt-ravaged properties into fertile, drought-resistant pastures. His methods are so at odds with conventional scientific wisdom that for 30 years he has been dismissed and ridiculed as a madman. He has faced bankruptcy and family break-up. But now, on the brink of ecological disaster, leading politicians, international scientists and businessmen are beating a path to his door as they grapple with how best to alleviate the affects of drought on the Australian landscape. Described as a man who reads and understands the Australian landscape better than most scientists, supporters of Peter Andrews claim he has done what no scientist ever thought to do – he has restored streams and wetlands to the way they were before European settlement interfered with them. The startling results of his natural sequence farming are said to have been achieved very cheaply, simply and quickly.

    Season by season, we are shown how to grow and manage native edible and medicinal plants in our gardens or on the wild edges of the land. Included are foraging tips and many recipes for making kitchen medicines and delicious food from our finds.
