Permaculture Made Real
SEPTEMBER 3, 2009 THURSDAY AT 3PM CT

 
 
We talked with one of the gurus of permaculture in the Midwest during our broadcast from the Energy Fair earlier this summer. In this follow-up program we explore with Mark Sheperd what it's like to be a permaculture farmer. Mark Shepard's New Forest Farm in southwestern Wisconsin was one of the very first examples of permaculture farming in the United States. Can you design a farm to be as self-sufficient as a forest?

Guest
  • Mark Shepard, owner of New Forest Farm, vice-president of the Southwest Badger Resource Conservation and Development Council
