New Self-Sufficiency courses are out for this summer!

We are teaching Good Heart Livingthis summer at the new farm in Parrawe overlooking the Tarkine Wilderness. We cant teach everything at this farm as we are still setting it up –  lots of wild animals and plants, gardens going in, orchard being established, forest being replanted, etc but we can still teach a lot. After all we have done just about everything to do with self-sufficiency on previous farms and grown all our own food on the last farm. We know what we are doing.


This is a great opportunity to learn how to do it from scratch, how to set up a farm, and exactly how to handle priorities. It’s just a great chance to see what is involved and if you would like to try and live this way. This is the real sustainability. This is the future not just of farming but of living. This is an alternative to what the governments and big businesses are offering you. This is the way we have done it. We have gone from 8 acres to 23 acres to 200 acres and we have learned a lot along the way. Now you can learn from Gavin's 50 years of growing mistakes (and successes!) and Lisa's way of folk healing she has developed using herbs and wild medicinal plants in the backwoods.

Now its our time to give back – to pass it on. Learn hard...there is a lot to learn.
