A Fukuoka Inspired Permaculture Garden

http://www.permacultureplanet.com
Emilia Hazelip (1938 - February 1, 2003) was an organic Permaculture gardener who was born in Spain and began gardening seriously in the late '60s. A former Merry Prankster and pioneer of the concept of synergistic gardening, her farming methods were inspired by the work of Masanobu Fukuoka.

Where Fukuoka focused most of his attention on orchards and the rice/barley crop rotation, Emilia Hazelip focused on creating and maintaining market gardens of vegetables and herbs.

Emilia Hazelip, who introduced the concept of permaculture to France over a decade ago, drew on many sources as she continued to develop gardens. The work of Permaculturist Marc Bonfils with self-fertile cereal production and the microbiological research of Alan Smith and Elaine Ingham are frequently mentioned.

and I also put a pond in the middle. Now I have hedgehogs and frogs on slug duty - and it has been so dry here in early June, the mulch has meant I have not needed to water at all. Great!

Fantastic video. I watched Sepp Holzer's dvd about his raised beds in Austria - very similar to these - and wondered how he did it. This is a great 'how to' guide. I am trying these beds out here in Wales, and am getting great results in the first year. Even the predicted slug problem is not too bad - I have laid the border hedge and left big stacks of habitat piles

Fantastic Video. One thing i dont understand though, why no organic fertilizer like compost? I know using cover crops and companion plants to enrich soil is sufficient but why not use it if you have it? Anyone know?

@driansanders @mainjurii not true, you missed the green mulch portion, the stalks of the plants are left behind and they become the straw that would have been used or you can just keep the stalks over winter and use them next season. Creativity allows for infinite answers.

Cardboard contains bleaches, dyes and pulp production chemicals. All that hard work ruined by cardboard!

[MrTadblack]

@driansanders I use the leaves I rake in the fall as the mulch in my garden (along with whacked weeds, lawn clippings, wood ash/charcoal and woodshed sweepings).

[mainjurii]

@driansanders good point, i hadnt considered that before

[driansanders]

devils advocate:This system needs 2 import lots of straw annually. Currently straw is abundant & cheap because large unsustainable farms treat straw as waste. In the Fukuoka cereal method all straw must be returned to the field it was grown in. If everyone was farming by Fukuoka methods their would be no straw for gardens like this. Other kinds of sustainable farms generally want to compost their straw or use it to bed animals.If this system needs unsustainable farms it is not sustainable

[LandescapeProject]

Very inspiring. We'll use this method in our natural Project!
