At the time of her request, we were balancing at the precipice of a huge transition and the thought of having “one more commitment” seemed nearly impossible. Early this spring we were at the end of an eight year journey of working to bring change into our county and state government to allow for equitable and sustainable building practices. All our work was coming to fruition and as part of our agreement to leave and make legal a beautiful example of a cob building on the site, we had to completely take down the straw bale community building...who we affectionately call the “Old Lady” and who has for years housed and nurtured so many people. </pre> Quail Springs Permaculture 2013-05-23T18:15:28 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.technology.permaculture.sdpg/1155 <pre>Please join us for this wonderful opportunity to work with the guru of rainwater harvesting in drylands, Brad Lancaster!

The forest gardens of Zacarias, or Chaco, are north of his village of San Andres on Lake Petén Itza. I first visited Chaco with a group of Maya forest gardeners from Cayo Belize some 15 years ago. Chaco is a proud agriculturalist. He has worked with his land and knows it well. He understands where the water goes, and uses it wisely — never leaving areas uncovered by trees and bushes for long. He studies his land, clearing and starting fires with wisdom and care. He is seriously devoted to the maintenance of his property and wants it to yield for his lifetime and those of his children and their children.
