Foodforests occupy the visions and dreams of many a permaculture enthusiast. Of those dreaming and visioning foodforests, the cramming of layers and complexity into temperate systems can become an obssesion. Those who do not share this obsession may find the potential of these systems difficult to grasp and will miss the subtleties of design and interaction that are so fascinating. For this reason epic public demonstration sites are more than worth their wieght in gold. The Beacon Hill Food Forest has captured loads of media attention lately as it has become a poster

Benjamin Fahrer Occupy Santa Rosa Part 2 Permaculture Podcast Episode 43

ryan@permaculturepodcast.org (Ryan Unmack) — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 02:38:11 +0000

I interviewed Benjamin Fahrer last November, we talked about his recent work with Occupy Santa Rosa, and how Permcaculture can fit into the world of activism. Permaculture may provide a beacon for direction in an ocean of malcontent. A place to chart ones course towards reconciliation with right livelihood and repair of the biosphere. Benjamin brings perspective to many these topics as we discus his experience as a teacher, trainer, farmer and peace building activist.

Impossible 2 Possible with Bob Cox Permaculture Podcast Episode 41

ryan@permaculturepodcast.org (Ryan Unmack) — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 02:08:24 +0000

The mission of Impossible to Possible (I2P) is simply stated; "Educate, Inpsire, Empower"! The methods seem simple enough; however the lived experiences of the participants are anything but simple. The I2P experience is nothing less than a true test of the will, but it sounds a lot more interesting than the testing of grit. I spoke with Bob Cox about their mission to educate, inspire and empower young people through extreme adventures on the international stage. Bob shares with us the roots of I2P and gives an introducation to their methods of ex

Kevin and I went to Palos Verdes Peninsula High School together in the early 90's. It had been about a decade since I had heard about or from him, when I started hearing good things about the work that he was doing through mutual friends in the permaculture comunity. Noting this interesting surprise, I reached out and connected with him to conduct an interview for the podcast. It was great for me to have a chance to catch up with him and to capture a part of his story.

Trathen Heckman of Daily Acts and Transition US Permaculture Podcasat Episode 31

Trathen has been a nexus of postive action in the Sonoma area for years. It is my pleasure to capture an interview with Trathen Heckman. This interview actually took several months to coordinate between busy schedules, however the result is well worth the effort. Trathen has a lot of postively inspiring notions to share with regard to implementing permaculture projects from the personal scale to the national level. Our talk begins with the personal and then scales out to the national level when we talk about transition US. If you are interested in what Trathen
