I've had people ask before, what's the best permaculture website? Well, wouldn't you know it someone asked a similar question at permaculture tv, which, is a dynamite site in it's own right. The truth is, there's so much good information out there, aren't the interwebs wonderful?
Speaking of good websites, for those more visually inclined try Spezify, you can do a visual web search on your favorite living architecture topics.
For some great videos, check out Urban Omnibus on how the East New York Farmers market got up and running, a great primer for anyone interested in starting their own. And over at How Stuff Works to spy Stephen Brooks as he makes a nice salad from his urban foraging wanderings...in LA.
Seriously, there's rosemary growing between the sidewalk cracks?
Now we'll jet over to the Africa. A story from Zimbabwe which puts struggle in perspective.
The City of Johannesburg is putting it's weight behind a permaculture training institute to help combat the socio-economic impact of HIV.
Rwanda is starting an urban agriculture program to ensure food security. I'll do my best to keep up to date on all of these new projects, so many wonderful things happening all around the world.
