Permaculture in Practice: Bradford Business Tutorials Videos

In Bradford, Springfield Community Gardens are an example of permaculture design for marginal grazing land at the urban fringe. The project was implemented (with regeneration funding) in partnership with permaculture designers and local residents who wanted a community garden centre. The open fields have been transformed into a diverse environment including the garden centre, willow plantations, a market garden, orchard areas and a woodland walk. The site has a permanent structure made from recycled timber that provides a community kitchen, a toolstore and compost toilets. The site is also used as a resource to provide facilities for disadvantaged groups.(c) Iota Pictures\n\nThis video can be found in its entirety on Google Video.\n\nChris Mackenzie Davey community manager business Andy Langford Yorkshire vegetables lettuce volunteer work plants grow regional local food solution tires cultivate wild flowers gardening horticulture drainpipes productivewater pond irrigation wildlife apple hazel pear greening city
