Permaculture in the suburbs

I may have mentioned that Lou and I went to visit Mike Guerra’s permaculture garden a few weeks back. Lou interviewed Mike as part of a mini-series for the gardening programme on BBC Three Counties Radio, and then re-cut the audio for a short documentary about permaculture. You can listen to it on the Ecologist website here.

Mike and his family live very compactly, growing an extraordinary amount of food from a very small garden. He is the author of The Edible Container Garden, which is a great guide to doing permaculture with just a balcony or a back yard.
