Organic Landscape Design

Personal Information

Gardening experience

I have been gardening since before I can remember - helping my parents in their garden. I started my own garden in 1980 when we built our house. I have tried all the organic gardening techniques - double dug - bio-intensive - and vigorous tillage. For the last four years I have been using sheet mulched permaculture beds - they provide the best return for the effort and build the soil year over year. All I do is plant mulch and harvest. (In 2008 and before, there was a lot of time trying to keep enough water on things - this year I'm installing drip irrigation).

Why am I participating

The living system in which we participate is being stressed by human activity. When we understand all the benefits we receive by cooperating with natures processes we will design and implement systems of production that heal nature and produce abundance. The projects listed in this web site are steps in that direction.
