I have put together some interviews of David Holmgren, the cofounder of permaculture. I wouldn’t suggest watching them straight through, but it is worth watching/listening to them very intentionally. I have grouped the multi-segment videos together. I hope you enjoy them.

Garden Update

Troy — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 14:23:34 +0000

The following is a retelling of a Q&A session with Sepp Holzer from RichSoil.com:

Somebody asked Sepp how to get rid of invasive blackberries. Sepp’s answer: “put a string of electric [fence] around the blackberries and then run pigs in there.”

. . .

And then somebody asked what if you don’t have pigs? [...]
