In this upcoming webinar, we'll be talking about:

The Permaculture Ethics and Principles (add benefits and results)

These will serve as the overarching ideas that will guide the entire food forest design and implementation process. Using these ethics and principles, you will be able to:
โ€ข Obtain much larger yields using the same amount of land
โ€ข More efficiently use energy and resources in order to reduce the overall cost
โ€ข Ensure your food forest remains sustainable all on its own
โ€ข Boost surplus to make more money 


The Intelligent Design of Food Forests
โ€ข Avoid the guessing game and depending upon luck
โ€ข Know the design philosophy to design correctly from the start to avoid unnecessary frustration and wasted resources
โ€ข Discover the hidden magic of natureโ€™s abundance
โ€ข Learn to mimic and optimize natural systems to your personal benefit to maximize โ€œhammock timeโ€

Good morning amazing people!
I met recently with Chris Messina and his campaign team. Chris is running for orange county mayor. After a visit to Galts Landing, they decided to significantly alter their campaign strategy to includeโ€ฆ

โ€œFood Security
Food security is a looming issue in Orange County.  However, replacing ornamentals with food bearing crops, a concept known as โ€œfood forestsโ€ is a powerful approach that Orange County must pilot.  
To the extent reasonably practical, the County should convert its properties to food forests, with the bounty donated to local food banks or otherwise offered to the community at no charge.  In furtherance of this objective, the County should develop a comprehensive plan for transforming its properties into food forests.  This plan will maximize biodiversity for plants and animals while minimizing the Countyโ€™s carbon-footprint and costs.  The County should consider not planting any new non-edible plants unless there are no practical edible alternatives.  To the extent reasonably practical, applying any chemicals or other maintenance practices that would be inconsistent with the subsequent planting and use of โ€œfood forestsโ€ should be discontinued on all of its properties.โ€

Can you imagine the marketing opportunities and the scalability of this? This is huge! This could literally change the political landscape/foodscape.
