Permaculture Stuff
The Permaculture Association, Britain. A registered charity and THE contact point for British Permies. Handles inquiries, the PC Academy, course information, Designers' Register, projects and more. Join up and support Permaculture in Britain.
Permanent Publications. Publishers of the excellent Permaculture Magazine and many British permaculture books.
Ecologic Books. The business that was passed on, which is a saga in itself; one of the oldest distributors of permaculture literature in Britain, now run by Peter Andrews. A huge variety of material.
David Holmgren. co-founder of Permaculture Design with Bill Mollison. An excellent website stuffed full of resources.
*****David's new book is out and you can look at a flier for it here.*****
Cool Temperate. The excellent Phil Corbett's website. Buy your temperate species here.
Wild Shopping! Mister Read's latest site.
Ragman's Lane Farm. A fine, evolving example of permaculture in Britain. Runs courses and visits; well worth seeing.
The Land Is Ours. Useful site, particularly regarding planning.
Chapter 7. Excellent resources for those struggling with the British planning system. You can also get to it easily via The Land Is Ours web site
Brithdir Mawr. Permaculture, dance, working horses, mature woodlands, coppice, hedgerows, stone circle, great people. An excellent settled but evolving community project with a cosy bunkhouse for visitor accommodation. A big site with a lot of space compared to us at Penrhos!
That Roundhouse. Tony Wrench's site devoted to the roundhouse he built at Brithdir Mawr (above). Tony and Jane are caught up in a similar situation to us, bound by the inappropriate planning laws in Britain that are currently strangling the evolution of sustainable livelihoods, homes, communities and environments.

Other Interesting stuff.
Questing Beast. Scrawl magazine and webzine. Interesting, entertaining and odd.
Slate Weaving. Gem's excellent pots made from recycled slate and how he does it (oh yeah?). Tragically vanished from virtual reality. If anyone comes across it, please let me know.
The Long Now. And I thought I was taking a long view planting 140 year rotation oaks. Essential thinking.
Future's Edge. Jamie Saunders' web site devoted to governance, time and the steadily evolving present.
David Bohm. A human being. Also a physicist.

Horse stuff.
Intelligent Horsemanship. (What a weird word; horse-man-ship. What's all that about then?) Lead by Kelly Marks, Monty Roberts' British presence and very good too.
