Preparing for the future, while preserving past
Here's a NEW but "old" video shot a few years back, in Fall 2007, and FINALLY online by a USC student working on a sustainable news piece

The video from the USC student on the Urban Homestead gave me the boost I needed. Thank you again!
Just found your site and I find it real inspiring what all you are doing. I am a little disappointed however by the lack of real information. I, and I think a lot of others as well, need some hands on information. How to make compost, what to plant together, what to plant when, etc. I see you do it all but not share any of this information I so desperately need. To really make a difference I think this info should be available. Many will get disappointed by failure and give up on home gardening (came close myself) while I am sure you could share a lot of good tips and tricks to make many more succeed.
Don't get me wrong, I like your website, I like what you are doing, just wish there was more hands on information and thus make a real difference.

What a great video. My goal is to have my backyard look just like yours and with the video I know what to do.
Jules, you defined Happiness is:
"to have all you need and some of what you want"
Who did you attribute this quote to?
garbled?
Dave, you need to go to your public library and pick up some books on gardening. No charge and you will learn a lot more from them then you would from a busy website. If you live in America, we also have a wonderful extension service in many parts of the country that will help you to start whatever it is you are wanting to accomplish. Good Luck, this is a worthwhile project.
@Laurie, What "extension service" are you referring to?
