[Southern California Permaculture] Miss the talk with Jerome Osentowski?/Forest Garden Greenhouse Youtube

[Margie Bushman, Santa Barbara Permaculture Network]

Hi Everyone -

Did you miss the talk with Jerome Osentowski last 
Sunday with his talk about his newly published 
book, The Forest Garden Greenhouse?

Below is an excellent short video if you did, or 
if you were there but want to review some of the ideas from his talk.

One of the design components that caught all of 
our attention, but a bit hard to understand on 
first hearing, was the Climate Battery™, the 
subterranean heating & cooling system design, 
which he and his architect partner Michael 
Thompson with their EcoSystems Design company 
developed and are now using for both residential 
and commercial greenhouse designs.  it's brilliant!

For more than 35 years, Jerome has been 
diligently working out designs & permaculture 
systems for his home & property in Basalt 
Colorado, where he grows food at 7200 ft on 
rocky, bare soils, without fertilizers.   He also 
mentioned he has the longest running Permaculture 
Design Course (PDC) in the world!  so a wealth of 
knowledge, we are deeply thankful for these 
pioneers who paved the way for so much that has come later...

You can purchase The Forest Garden Greenhouse 
directly from Jerome's nonprofit CRIMPI, or from 
Chelsea Green publishers, always better to 
support the author, or the publishers committed 
to sustainabilty and permaculture, rather than 
Amazon, no matter what the cost savings, got to live our values ya know!
