Thank you Milkmood and Dave for this forum.
I am also a TSP / MSB member, which is how I became aware of this wonderful website and podcast. Thanks for taking the wheel. Since becoming aware of the permaculture concept in its entirety, I have planted Pomegranate trees and plum trees. I am exploring the support guilds and trying to become familiar with more effective companion planting. I still have raised beds on my 8a North Texas corner suburban lot. I am not sure I can get around the raised beds (heavy black clay soil) and replace them with hugleculture beds. Still, putting punky wood in the bottom of the raised beds and heavy mulch have decreased the water requirements. I am looking forward to trick-or-treating for raked leaves over the next few months for my next (sort-of) hugleculture bed.
