Our young forest garden
I
first started noticing the term "permaculture" about a year ago, and
the idea quickly struck my fancy. My background is in forest
ecology, and everything I read about forest gardening and permaculture
just made intuitive sense.
Those of you who have
been reading along know that we started planning
our first forest garden last winter. That forest
garden is still slowly taking shape, but hopefully in a decade it will
be mature and bearing. Every year we look forward to a greater
yield with less
work. And, of course, to lots more fascinating permaculture books
to keep our brains active!

About us: Anna Hess and Mark Hamilton spent over a decade living self-sufficiently in the mountains of Virginia before moving north to start over from scratch in the foothills of Ohio. They've experimented with permaculture, no-till gardening, trailersteading, home-based microbusinesses and much more, writing about their adventures in both blogs and books.
