School garden

Ok a digression here as this is not permaculture at chickenshackc, but this is what i have been doing as a job; building permaculture forest gardens in schools. This one we are feeling proud of at the moment, not much evidence of the plantings, as it is still winter, but its going to be a little refuge from the rest of the extensive school playground, and be filled with scented herbs, and edible fruits and berries. There is a compass dial seat and a wildlife pond. The pond is protected by a metal grill, so the little darlings don't drown themselves. The bigger plan I guess is to get really experienced at forest garden design and and plantings, and to propagate a lot of the plants here at the housing co-op, so it can grow into a nice parallel business here. Plus we get lots of plants to play with in our forest garden
