Greening the Desert – Geoff Lawton

Posted by Jake

 

 I was amazed when I saw the above video clip a while back. If they can bring this area of the world into food production…there’s HOPE for the rest of the world!!  It will be fun to watch this project as it moves a long…

 

Here’s the update!!  The video below is part 2… and more of a documentary…very much worth watching! 

 

We’re putting SWALES on COUNTOUR in our yard..it makes so much sense..!  In this last video, Geoff shows what happens with SWALES, and how permaculture can help heal the planet! 

I LOVE… that one of the benefits is creating new… SPRINGS!

If this interested you…you can check out more of Geoff Lawton’s work at http://permaculture.org.au/
