Introduction to Permaculture Part 9

Today it was Morag's turn to take us out. We went to the Zones 1 and 2 gardens and got to check out the weed tea, worm and normal composting.

 

 Morag showing us the Zone 2 garden.

                        Cassava.

   Daikon Radish - used by Masanobu Fukuoka (Japanese visionary and author of 'One Straw Revolution') as a soil conditioner.

     The reason why - the deep fat root that aerates and loosens the soil.

Morag then took us down to the Zone 1 veggie garden where there was a large patch of insect attracting (and just plain pretty!) flowers.
