The Eco Gardener: The Eco-City
http://ecogardenernz.blogspot.com/p/eco-city.html
The blog of Christine Dann, who has been gardening with Nature for over thirty years. Some reflections on doing an 'eco-retrofit' of New Zealand cities to make them more resilient, and hence better able to withstand short emergencies, and also the long emergency of water, food, oil and climate crises, which will all intensify in the twenty-first century. Re) Building an Eco-Resilient City. Means ecologically healthy and sustainable. The physical essentials of eco-resilience. An acute short emergency like...

Wild Picnic: Purslane (Portulaca oleracea)
http://wildpicnic.blogspot.com/2011/04/purslane-portulaca-oleracea.html

It has a sour, salty taste, like beach spinach. It's unusual ...

Future Thinking for Social Living. The Small Yellow Shawl. I went through a whole range of ideas about the shape of the final piece, which would be the document of all the fibre process and the time spend since Summer 2014. I had to realise that with singles one cannot knit straight, as the yarn has still a very alive twist in it. ...
