Another great article, thanks. You say "Any Permaculture-designed area has a wild zone" which is one of it's great qualities, though what makes a really good wildlife habitat is continuity - to have multiple zone 5s linked to corridoors and larger refuges, rather than islands. That's more of a challenge in an urban/suburban setting, though it too has precedents e.g. the fingers of wild woods seeping down river valley systems from the moors, almost as far as central Sheffield
It’s time to build ‘islands of sanity.’ 🫶🏼
Hi Patrick, I fully agree and, happily, people are getting on and building them. Luckily for us it doesn't get into the mainstream media :-)
I like to believe we're building tributaries from that mainstream ;)

Hi, thanks! Yes indeed, I'm trying to get the 2 French Permaculture networks to get behind this project https://www.koridori.org/
