At the presentation I just did at the Self Reliance Expo there were two main things people had major questions about when it comes to food forestry.  The first was “what trees and plants work in Texas” and that really is what will work in most of the US.  The second is how does this all apply to a small back yard or smaller piece of land. Now the new video Geoff Lawton just released shows what can be done, including with trees in small backyards.  This videos leads off with a back yard that is only 640SF.  Of course … Continue reading →

Geoff Lawton’s Newest Video and Some Confusion about Access to the Videos

The Survival Podcast Posted on April 29, 2013 by Modern SurvivalApril 30, 2013

Well Geoff released his latest video over the weekend (Urban Permaculture, The MicroSpace) while I was tied up with the expo and it is just awesome.  Many have been asking about what can be done with smaller pieces of land and this video answers that beautifully.  Before I send you off to the new video though, I want to help clear something up. To view these videos you do have to provide your email address to them so they can email you about future videos, that is internet business 101.  I do it and I advise anyone doing business online … Continue reading →

Geoff Lawton’s Next Video – Permaculture in Micro Spaces

The Survival Podcast Posted on April 25, 2013 by Modern SurvivalApril 25, 2013

One common trap that I see play out over and over and over again with people new to permaculture is what I call an monocular view.   Or a one dimensional view.  They see a desert project and so permacultureis for deserts, or they see a project in the tropics and feel it is only for where bananas can be grown. In the case of Geoff’s recent videos two views like this came to a head from this audience, they seem to be. 1.  Permaculture and Geoff’s designs are only for large properties 2.  All permaculture designs are based on large swales … Continue reading →

After an 11 year career as an Army Logistic Officer, Jenn Fowler traded her combat boots for tennis shoes and became stay at home mom in Upstate New York.  Not long after that she combined her love of writing with her love of saving money to created the Frugal Upstate blog in Jan 06, where she helps teach people how to “Use what you have, get creative and save”. Jenn now lives with her husband, two kids, one dog and 2 rodents on the “Frugal Upstate Village Homestead” in a small Upstate NY community eerily reminiscent of Mayberry.   Jenn is … Continue reading →

After a heavy-hearted day yesterday this is a fun interview on two great subjects, one is a total bonus. Gene Pearcey has built earth shelter homes for over 30 years.  His company, “Performance Building Systems, Inc” manufactures a patented structural system used to build earth shelter arches and domes used mainly for homes and some all out shelters. They do this by producing steel structural systems that with concrete forms a shell rated in excess of 4000-psi. When sheltered with earth, the home benefits from the constancy of the earth’s temperature, greatly reducing heating and cooling expense. Additionally, the strength … Continue reading →
