Is there a writeup on the project? A book?
Enjoy your visit to our wonderful state of Arizona!
January I have a crazy beautiful spring garden in Mesa, AZ. Night temperature are 45-55 degrees.☺️
This reminds me of a video I watched a few years ago but his name wasn't Dan. He cut the curb to allow the precious rainwater to run into earthen and rock water collection areas (swales) that he had planted all of those native plants in. He used solar ovens for cooking and his outdoor shower water heating system. He used olla's to water plants in the back yard. The amazing part was that the whole neighborhood got involved. I wish he would have allowed you to film, but I 100% get it that he wanted to protect his privacy.
They are both incredible, innovative individuals!
(Edited to remove his name)
I love the adventure of checking out different methods of gardening/farming in different growing zones to see how it all works. Permaculture is so impressive when you see it in person! Thank you Billy
I bet it was mind blowing to talk to that guy ! Very cool , video.
Very interesting thanks for sharing.
I really wish this would catch on everywhere especially with climate activist. Permaculture would correct the planet without destroying nature
Billy check out Brad Lancaster. He lives in Tucson and does incredible things in his neighborhood with rainwater harvesting.
Desert permaculture is very interesting. Although I dont think I could ever live in it, there is something very romantic about the high desert.
Lived in Scottsdale for almost two years. Couldn’t stand it. Perhaps in northern AZ, like Flagstaff maybe. Also lived in Las Vegas for a year – couldn’t wait to leave.
Where do we go to find permaculture people nearby?
Thanks for taking the time and effort to show us something really cool!!
I thought your thumbnail said ‘dessert 🍨 food forest ‘ I was really excited 😂
Mad respect for you 😅
You didn't show us anything.
Thanks, Billy!!! I grew up in the desert in southern New Mexico. I always dreamed I would be a gardener growing up, but mostly all I could grow were zinnias & rose bushes. I moved to Tucson for a year. I was fascinated by the landscape there, but lived in an apartment with nowhere to grow anything. Then I moved to Oklahoma, where everything looked so green to me! I can grow almost anything here, but 40 years later, I have never forgotten the desert. I was thinking about it just this morning! I never knew anything but the cactus was edible! My sister still lives there, so the next time I go back, I will have to see what is edible on her acreage! My brother lives in Tucson. I need to go for a visit! God Bless!
Brother I love your mentality
Amazing find!
Thanks Billy, for the urban wilderness broadcast! Neat looking area, and like we say, it's what you make of it that counts. Stay safe brother.
Don't know if you're looking for other people in the area, but
Rudy Poe is a permaculture designer in Dragoon Arizona
I'm trying to create a permaculture food oasis here in the desert of Slab City in Southern California. It's slow going, especially when I need to protect seeds/seedlings from all sorts of wildlife. Any progress is good progress. Moringa trees are very dense with nutrients and is my main plant I'm focused on to begin this project. Love watching your channel.

We studied the water harvesting work being done in Tucson at my PDC in CO. Inspiring.
Billy you should check out that farm in Arizona called the edge of nowhere , they have a youtube channel as well .
You should check out the Tiny Shiny Home channel. They have a property in Southern Arizona and seem like really great people.
OMGoodness Billy!!! you ninja-mission-man….you're in my state! i am in need of perma-culture!!! just north of prescott. my farm is an empty slate ready to be resurrected! bring on the great info!
i have heard Mesquite pods can be used for smoking meat.
