We discovered a great sitcom produced by the BBC called "Good Neighbors" I suppose it is a form of permaculture in the middle of suburbia. Check it out if haven't already seen it. We got it at the library...movies for the cheap and lazy

I saw an episode online (linked from here I think), it looked very cute and funny.

In one of the episodes the couple are trying to get some materials for their garden (possibly mulch, I can't remember) and one of them says to a person "We need your help, we're self-sufficient."

At first that gave me a laugh but then I thought about how appropriate that is. Engaging with community instead of a big box store is a part of being self-sufficient I think.

I totally share this belief. It helps bring back feelings of community and fosters friendships too
