Grant. On that Voices video you give us a feeling at the scale in which thing are being done in Versaland.
Can you talk a little about the project management preparation for the time when you were ready to plant all those trees?
What were the main steps and how long ahead of time did you start to prepare?

Thank you and regards.

There are three main factors:

1) Site Design

2) Order of Operations & Implementation

3) Sourcing Plant Material & Livestock

If you can think about these three things, the season you begin will dictate the rest. That's the simple answer.

To learn all the intricacies - come to the Farmscale Permaculture Workshop if you can!

Best,
Grant

It's a portmanteau of Versatile Landscape.


I owned the web domain http://versaland.com from my old life, and it really fit my intent of a farm that exhibited a diverse polyculture.
 
F is for finger. Can you stick your finger in your nose? Doesn't that feel nice? Now try this tiny ad:
