I’m hosting a talk + open discussion on designing a productive blend of gardens, ponds, and animals.

We’ll map plant and animal roles, water cycles, and layered/strata organization for year-round food, cosmetics, medicine, fiber, and energy.

I’ll also explain why permaculture has struggled to scale, and share practical patterns that do scale: modular guild blocks, water-first layout, low-skill ops, and simple metrics that keep complexity in check.

This session is part of the cyberia lecture series: practical blueprints for autonomous, off-grid living.
