Permaculture in Presidio and Reeves County, Texas

Hi to all,                                                                                              September 24, 2010

Just want to get the word out that I have two properties and not enough hands and hours in the day.  I have a 10 acre property about 1 hour 15 minutes West of Odessa-Midland (they have a super farmer's market there)  and another 22 acre property in Presidio (No country for Old men) Texas.  I am chiefly trying to get tough, desert-friendly forage plants on these properties and contain them (more or less) with a double living fence of Mesquite trees.

Water catchment, Earthships, Composting toilets and solar sterilizers, borrowing of Zone 8 African and Australian Acacias, raising small but healthy populations of semi-exotic deer and sheep are the main goals. Lots of room for somebody with good ideas.  Would like to develop a small team of folks and help them build some equity so that they can offshoot their own projects and be my good ecologically-responsible neighbors....My mind is wide open for anybody looking for land. I might even trade that 10 acre property for some serious (yes serious) labor on my larger one...you gotta love the desert though..I think its great.....
 
Thanks for looking....Mike L.

Do you have any picture of your place Mike?

Mike -

I live in El Paso, and would be interested in talking with you, if you are still looking for labor.

Thanks,
Tim
