    Just returned to Western Colorado after a year of permaculture adventures in Australia. It feels strange to not have my hands on a project.. landing up here in the middle of winter... so figured it would be good to find some permaculture friends online.

    I have also been looking for ways to get involved in permaculture aid for Haiti and wonder what information people have regarding that.

    EDIT: I am also working on guilds of permaculture plants for Temperate/Cold and Arid zones, any input would be beneficial. Thanks.

    All the best
    Aaron

    Yukkuri, Aaron
    There is a thread on permaculture Haiti in the news section you might like to post your link and ask questions there.

    What is Colorado like weather/climate wise. I get the idea it is a bit dry like Australia.

    BTW Aron welcome "back" :)

    cheers
