Of permaculture fans and farmers

If you are a permaculture fan join the Permaculture Research Institute's worldwide database and maybe meet a collaborator or two. If you are a permaculture farmer, consider helping a Ph. D. student with her thesis by filling out this brief survey. If you can help explain why permaculture has not diffused into the mainstream farmer populations in the US and Australia, clue her (and everyone) in!

-Speaking of surveys, the deadline to fill out the green infrastructure has been extended to May 15.

-Sponsored by the Office of Refugee Resettlement, an urban farm in St. Louis is extending opportunities to refugees to spend three years learning the tricks to successful farming.

-Aruba "aka One happy Island" just wrapped up its first permaculture week. By the way, is the man signing the papers a cool customer or what?
