But, in the last analysis, basic resources weren't interchangeable with other economic goods at all: you couldn't drink baseball cards, no matter how big or valuable your collection, once the water ran out. Nor could you eat dollars, if nobody had food to sell. And so, after a certain point, people started to lose faith in their money.

Home Backyard Newsletters News ... Projects Hamilton Permaculture Trust Hamilton Permaculture Trust The Hamilton Permaculture Trust has been developed to provide education and opportunities for people to learn about methods of permaculture and organic gardening. We have developed the Sustainable Backyard Garden at the Hamilton Gardens, a demonstration of urban permaculture, complete with fruit trees, chicken tractor, solar power and aquaculture. This has been designed, built and maintained entirely by volunteers (new faces always welcome!) In addition, we are available to run training courses with other community groups and assist other groups in developing their own community gardens. What is Permaculture? * Permaculture is fundamentally about reducing waste and using the resources that we have in the most efficient and effective way possible. * It is a system of design for living more sustainably, centered around thinking and observation, ecology and geography. * Permaculture design is based on observations of ecosystems and how they function, then mimicking patterns found in nature to create a 'cultivated ecology' of plants, animals and structures. Permaculture is about taking care of the earth, it's people and fair share of resources.
