Is there anyone in the Memphis, TN area that is knowledgeable about permaculture

I live in West TN and permaculture hasn't exactly "caught on" around here yet.  Is there anyone that you know of in this area that could give me some advice from time to time?

I'm new to permaculture too, but maybe we can help one another. I live in Somerville. I was looking for some seeds, namely things like comfrey and pear seeds. Also check out Oleo Acre Farms in Stanton , Tim Ammons knows a bunch of perm-esque things.

You may want to call the Botanical Gardens and ask for Laurie. She has great knowledge and is also tuned into perma/sustainability.
