A permaculture consultation with Colin and Maia (Zone 3)

Disclaimer: I have closed consultations for the time being - I just simply don't have the time to get to all the demand. I am incredibly honored that so many of you want me to help you design your projects. Perhaps when life gets a little less hectic I will do more of these, and even do this full time. I do really enjoy helping people out.

In today's episode, Colin and Maia wanted to share their consultation with everyone (it was their idea infact!). What an incredible couple these two are. Newly married, child on the way, just jumped on a large suburban/semi-rural property, and want to build a food forest.

In this consult, we discuss access, water, grading, plant selection, location, soil pH, site design, site goals, geothermal, ponds, raised beds, even a hockey rink, and all sorts of other great stuff.

Unfortunately, the video cut out and when we rejoined we talked about pollination, fertility building, thermal microclimates, plant selection, and a few other things, which weren't captured by the recording. However, I think enough of this video was captured, that I think there's value in sharing it.

One last thing, as much as Colin and Maia didn't mind their information being made semi-public, please still respect their privacy. We are all a family here.

Happy growing season everyone! I'm hoping that Colin and Maia will share their progress in maybe a fall "viewer vids" series. I wasn't able to do one last year due to just how incredibly busy work got, but I'm hoping to be able to do one this year.

Much love,
Keith
