. . . but that doesn’t mean I’m not still racking up a list of sites and posts. (It just means more are old news now.) For now, I’ve cleared out some of my tabs by adding a Sustainable Agriculture page and listing more blogs in the blogroll in the sidebar.
One of my favorite ways to waste time lately is search through green blogs. I especially love reading blogs from people converting their existing property into a more sustainable garden, or more. Unfortunately that’s usually a full-time job in and of itself, and the blogs might not get updated too regularly. Here’s a few I’ve recently found and enjoy reading:
- Planting Milkwood: A young couple in Australia with PDCs (Permaculture Design Certificates) are converting some unused pastureland into their own personal permaculture paradise. With a background in digital media and technology, their site is beautiful and easily navigable; plus they have a plethora of amazing pictures and how-to videos on their property Milkwood.
- I’ve been following Rob over at One Straw for a while now. He’s interested in sub-acre agriculture and is slowly hashing out a plan for a 1/10 acre lot that could be tessellated ad infinitum to fill larger properties too. The fun bit is that he started out with no practical knowledge about farming — he’s converting his suburban backyard in Wisconsin into a productive garden as practice with dreams of one day buying a larger property. He’s also got lots of fun side projects on the side (and all that while keeping a more-than-full-time job and a family).
- Farmgirl Fare is chock full of cute pictures and great recipes. Yum.
