Radical permaculture
I really enjoyed the recent
interview with Frank
Aragona on the Diet
Soap podcast.
Frank goes into some detail
about a new project he's working on with a group in New Mexico that
wants to expand a program that teaches gardening skills to school
children.
It's a concept that is long
overdue and I can't help but to feel like a couple of hours working in
the dirt might actually help to calm down some of the more energetic
students that can never seem to stay in their seats.
I would take it a step
further and teach the kids some basic janitorial skills and put them to
work cleaning the school like students do in Japan.
