Living With The Land | Part 7 | Off-grid Living
Tips, Tricks
Pat Bowcock explains how she left her 9-5 lifestyle to live in tune with the land, creating her own five acre permaculture smallholding, that is her home, her work and her life. Pat's smallholding, Ourganics Evolving Systems, features a large polytunnel, a flood garden and a forest garden, all of which she harvests and sells to the local community. The local spring is used to water the crops which then joins the River Bride and a small caravan and yurt offer a place to stay, providing extra income. Ourganics Evolving Systems is a real example of how off-grid living is a labour of love where work and play are interchangeable and a job doesn't mean paying rent, but living a richer life. ------ Narrated by international lawyer and author of 'Eradicating Ecocide', Polly Higgins - http://pollyhiggins.com Produced by Permaculture People | http://permaculturepeopleuk.tumblr.com for Permaculture magazine | http://permaculture.co.uk Logo designed by HIP Permaculture | http://hippermaculture.com Camera Mihali Moore | http://mihalimoore.co.uk For more information about Pat and Ourganics please visit: http://www.peasantevolution.co.uk/members_ourganics.html ------ Living with the Land | The Films Living with the Land' is a series of nine short online films free to view and distribute.
