Introducing Morag Gamble from our NEW Incredible Edible Garden Course!
My name is Morag Gamble. I have been teaching permaculture for about 25 years in more than 20 countries.
I live a simple life in an Australian ecovillage, in an ecohouse I built with my family, which I’ve surrounded with abundant permaculture gardens (which have been awarded the Glossies Edible Landscape Award, presented by Costa Georgiadis).
The planet is having a rest and we are helping cultivate her garden.
This is a time where genetically modified foods are not welcome, because without seed we have no food, beware seedless watermelons, what use are they when you want to grow more watermelons. Many people tell me they have no time for gardens, well now we have the time, take it as a gift and be in awe of how a garden grows.
