Hello, my real name is Chris and I live in Glendale, AZ (zone 9b). I listen to The Survival Podcast on which Dave has been a guest. The host of the podcast talks frequently about permaculture and integrating its philosophy into a self-sufficiency lifestyle. Now, I'm far from an expert in permaculture, but I am enthusiastic about the subject. I have been handed the torch to mod the new Permaculture forum here on ATP, an honor I humbly accept. Thanks Dave! Now let's build this community!
