Help creating a resilient property along permaculture principles in Shinrone, Co. Offaly, Ireland

Detalhes

• 

  Descrição

  We moved onto the 16ac property in 2024 and are developing it to become as self-sufficient as possible. We have installed solar panels, developed a vegetable patch, started our food forest, and have dug a large wildlife pond for bio-diversity. We will shortly plant a forest of over 10,000 oak trees, erect a poly tunnel and expand our growing area with swales, more ponds, and more fruit trees.
  
  In keeping with the principles of permaculture any excess food we grow will be passed on to the community. Just to be clear, this is not a commercial operation, we are both retired and just looking to create the best possible life for us and our community.
  
  It is also hoped to start running permaculture workshops in the near future.
  
  We would appreciate your help in realising our dream.
