20 Years At Permaculture’s Cutting Edge with Jason Gerhardt
Third Ethic Return of the Surplus is more a Lawton promotion not Mollison. In the manual its quite different (and shocking to some).
Great idea. We need it for the farming communities. The ambiguity of organic and not organic is ridiculous. Who knows what’s good now.
He is fundamentally flawed saying we need to REVERSE CLIMATE CHANGE. See descriptions of my related playlists and know it's Weather Warfare and lies.
Thanks!!
This is very interesting. How could I find potential buyers ahead of time here in the Monterrey Bay Area?
Hello World
I did not expect Ryan Reynolds to be narrating.

I live in Millersburg Ohio, it took me a few years to grow my trees bit they are hearty with many fruits each year. There are too many for me to eat
People who buy land for hunting deer is a viable market for design.
A high mental hurdle is transitioning from orchard plantings to interplanting.
The vetch will be shaded out of existence overtime and if the tree seedlings are tubed or a circle of hardware cloth it largely holds back the vetch. Might have to pull some of it off to let in the sun depending on how young the trees are and/or how established the vetch is. Otherwise, I like the coverage of vetch to overcome the wild plants. Timing is plant trees first then establish the vetch. The deer pick at it but don't eat it to the ground like nearly everything else the trees seem to like lol. Works for me anyway. The other less intrusive plant that worked for me is birdsfoot trefoil, but canary grass will take it over.
Becoming rich? Provocative indeed!
Mr. Greene doesn't want to straight up say its nearly impossible for someone who has nothing to buy land and start up a business that will pay the mortgage payments. Its like that is the default standard - can you start with nothing and get right (rich) in no time flat? lol People have to work up to larger systems. Produce a track record of small scale to attract interest in being funded for large projects. I like the statement about working. But hey, I'm just conversing here and who knows, there might be an easy path...
"Hobby stuff to diversify". !
Excellent charcoal material and natural hedge barrier for wild live and windbreakers, next to that the redistribution off minerals and natural fertilisers also high seek material for mushroom growers
Thank you both very much, shared again 🤝😉🍁💪
lots of good ideas here with trees you might be trying to get rid of, but now may have a way to use them!
Nice. Here in the UK we have a remnant of a coppice tradition that was probably the dominant use of woodlands across the lowlands of England and Wales and was well established in Scotland and Ireland and dates back at least 3000 years. Unfortunately since World War 1, the overwhelming emphasis on managing woodlands has been on 'forestry' and coppiced ancient woodlands are still losing biodiversity as the original coppice loses more and more stools as canopy cover expands. Hazel features strongly in traditional coppicing with other species like oak (Quercus robur and Q. petraea often for tanbark as well as small timber knees and poles), sweet chestnut (still viable), alder and ash. Oak, ash, crack willow, poplar, hornbeam got pollarded and stob-cuts were a thing, especially on field and woodland boundaries. Osiers for basketry are still kind of viable and are different. The knobbly end of a pollard trunk (and the trunk) was traditionally called the 'bolling'.
It's sad that such time honored traditions so easily get put on the wayside but here we are, aiming to reintroduce them to make them viable again
I made my greenhouse frame and porch railings with popular saplings, they grow like weeds on my property so may as well use them.
Definitely! Use what you have.
Are you based near Santa Rosa?
We are North America wide, the speaker in the video is from Vermont, we do know so folks in Santa rosa too if you need connections
Imagine buying polewood at home depot, instead of bamboo from Asia 6000+ miles away? Hazelwood is amazingly well-adapted to being coppiced, it keeps them living for centuries, if not for millennia!
Imagine that indeed!
I wonder how this would work with native persimmons.
Bet it would work
I've got some big leaf maple (acer macrophillum), that has taken to coppicing. Also, red alder (alnus rubra) seems to work, as well, but it's early days.
Most trees don't mind it really
@@permaculture_institute_na well, the firs don't seem to like it 🤣
So glad to see that this exists in the USA! Thank you so much for this posting.
Our pleasure! Hopefully we'll see a resurgence
It's the thing to do.
that it is
2 pound Paw Paws? Where are you?
I want to try this as extra fodder for the cows. There’s another term but I can’t think of it!

Watching this video, I know what to do with male mulberry trees in my yard. Pollard them. I really want to plant a few next year to try to get some fruit-bearing mulberry bushes. I used to make beer, and buy Michigan-made mead. I always thought mulberry mead or wine would be great and I don't see why there's not a commercial harvest. PINA looks like a great org. I've been taking the Mossy Earth rewilding course, but they're not in North America. Thank you!
That's one of the best way to get mulberries to fruit. Give it a try, I think your mead will be delicious
It seems like Osage Orange would be a good candidate for coppicing. Especially the thornless varieties.
Go for it, that will coppice for sure, Makes a good hard wood
Roland Gunderson (forgive the spelling) wrote a book, round wood design. Not a bad read.
That's a good book. Thanks for the suggestion
Roald Gundersen
as a kid I used to make palisade forts with polewood. also woven polewood rafters inside multi story igloos on top of the snow piles that the adults would leave behind after clearing the roads. piles would compact enough that I could cut blocks from inside and hollow out the hill to make towers on top but it got to high so I made pole wood ladders and floors inside and snow block battlements and spiral staircases around the parameter. the drawbridge was sketchy. old wheel rim pulleys with (you guessed it) polewood axles and decommissioned broom handles. would defend these fortresses with polewood spears and bows strung with discarded baler twine.
Great share! Thanks.
I want to see this!
I just got the idea to use ghetto palms growing around my house to make spindles and stool legs. Chopping a round tenon into it isn't difficult. I will see how it goes. I'm making a 3 legged shave horse with it.
Awesome! Feel free to email us your finished product and we can share it. Info@pina.in
I like working with Tree of Paradise as well. The young saplings definitely have a smell that takes getting used to. It has a wood that dries off white to yellow white when dry. I have made Native American Flutes and Didgeridoos from it for years with excellent results.
I discovered coppicing by accident. I was clearing a part of my property and cut down a lot of small pecan, privet hedge, bradford pear, and mimosa trees. My life got directed elsewhere for a while and by the time I circled back to that field, I discovered that nearly every tree that I had cut down had survived and pulled a hydra on me (cut off one head and several more take its place). It was not what I wanted, but it was useful none the less since I run a small wood stove for heat and material between 4'" to 6" diameter is ideal for it. Now, as long as I manage it properly, I can have an endless supply of firewood to keep me warm in the winters.
That's really cool. A hidden resource you did not know you had!
awesome stuff bro! Just remember, it would be good for you to destroy the privet and bradford pear, even the mimosa, because they are all extremely invasive in North America, I'm just saying this as a guy who learned his lesson from cutting the invasive caragana on my neighbor's property her in Alberta that invasive shrubs/trees are hell to control over time if they do that hydra thing you mentioned. I intensely recommend you root-rip and replace all the non-natives with some pecan and any other native shrub of your choosing, but for permaculture reasons I suggest staghorn sumac. Much love from a permaculture enjoyer in Alberta!
you seem to have a game plan to keep the invasive from doing their thing, just felt like warning you of the coom-scented plague that is the Bradford pear tree. You must be aware though, because how co=ould you NOT smell that? lol
That is so cool!
@@noahrafter-lanigan2409I love your suggestion of staghorn sumac.
I love finding and listening to genuine experts in fields I’ve only just begun explore but already glimpse the depth and importance. Thanks for sharing!
We have a lot more experts where that came from. You may want to check out becoming a member of PINA so you can access dozens of conversations like this.
We are at the nexus point now where there needs to be regulatory agencies that protect small-scale decentralized independent farms from multinational conglomerate predatory behavior within government agencies
6:00 yeahs
Lots of good nuggets here. I love wondering about ways to use bendy poles, they're endlessly useful. My first thought goes to semi-permanent shelter domes and hoop houses. I often wonder about making one from living willow and hanging a tarp etting below it. That'd have really cool shifting patterns of light on the tarp as the branches blow in the wind. Then come winter the leaves fall off, allowing in more light to warm the space a bit. I bet it would look really cool after some years as the original saplings grow thicker and merge together. I assume I'd be gathering thinner cuttings every year for baskets and trellises, not quite sure how the long term management of this living shelter would go, nothihg but doing it would really teach me.
I like it, I want to make one of my own too.
How well would this work w Popple(poplar)?
You should not coppice People, even if they’re popular.
Love it!!
It should work just fine, why not try one and see how it goes?
Nothing new under the sun.
No it is not, but sometimes people need to be reminded
I prefer pollarding -lol.
Well, when your name ends in Pollard, it makes sense
Huh. Interesting.
It's something that's worth looking into deeper
yeah. U just proved that ignorance is valued more that inspiration i
How so?
The Bodger's Ball, in England, is a great example of the Traditional Trades that once supplied communities with goods for around the home. ua-cam.com/video/ZTasPBOrql8/v-deo.html I've long said that we made a huge mistake, failed to "tend the garden", when we listened to the snakes in the grass who talked sweet about how the cheap plastic and mass-produced chintz was better/cheaper than the wooden wares produced locally. How much culture, heritage, and tradition did we lose? Everyone talks about the environmental impacts that hedgerows and windbreaks bring to the land, but we forget the human component. Up until the 1970's, people were still producing wooden items made by hand, but you could see the writing on the wall as all the craftsmen were grey in their beards and with no apprentices. And for what? Coppicing has been a part of European culture for thousands of years, and for good reason. Making products from the rods and withes is what gives every region, every tribe, a sense of identity and pride in their local way. And it meant jobs for people. So, yeah, great for the environment... but let us not forget that we are as much a part of the environment as any songbird or ground squirrel.
Coppicing is amazing for many reasons, but remember that sometimes "solutions looking for a problem" is not the right logic.
I agree, but I'd love to know how you think that applies to this video
I'm not sure that's what's happening here, can you expand.
Highly recommend Mark’s book
Mark is a wealth of knowledge
Good for fuel also in rock mass heaters, good size for Biochar
Perfect for Rocket stoves and biochar
I just returned from Rwanda where Eucalyptus is literally coppiced for profit across the nation. I asked many people about coppicing and they had never heard of the term. Interestingly, the division of who is allowed to harvest what (large trunks vs. small trunks, vs branches and dead growth followed what your book said about England circa 1600. I also saw several folks hand milling wood for construction. Primary uses was firewood, building materials, and charcoal. The roofing in the country is pitched like it's a snowy environment and everyone of them were made from roundwood
That's pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. There's a market for coppice wood, people just may not know it yet.
I wish there waas a clearing house for Permaculture Land Trusts, a network of resources to make it easier to build the Trust for each state. Great way to make sure what you plant today will be living in 50 years, storing Carbon and providing Food, Medicine, and fiber sustainably.
Yeah, fight off the corporate interests the whole time. They're using race to hide other discriminatory practices and questionable operations
Eric is a personal hero of mine, I encourage everyone to read his books and plant more perennial vegetables.
Wow! Very interesting and gives me hope for the future.
I love permaculture and eco restoration, and I would be interested in this program if not for the fact that participating in “roleplaying as a fire” sounds really boring. I know because I do this on my own land. We need to appoint stewards of the land to manage a FIRE BASED approach for long term management. No need to ask any kind of spirit for permission to fix the problems we caused. And no, your policy is not “leave nature to do its thing” because nature is telling you it wants to burn. And we call horrible fires “natural” disaster, but the cause and anything but natural.
