On to today's featured permaculture tidbit!

Paddock Shift System

Ooh, some little Joel Salatin stuff!

This kind of thing is a cool way to build soil, and particularly effective at it! Incorporating animals into permaculture is a new-ish movement in the still young idea of permaculture.

For further reading, the book You Can Farm by Joel Salatin is a great place to start. Salad Bar Beef, Pastured poultry Profits, and many others by the same man are also very informative and go more in depth into the animals you can easily and profitably raise with this permaculture technique.

While I don't currently have access to that kind of space, my friend is working on acquiring some, and he and I are laying plans for exactly that kind of operation.

What about you? Could you pasture some chickens in your neighborhood? Or maybe you have a friend that would let you pasture a couple cattle that would build their soil and provide inexpensive, nutrient dense food for your families. Could your church put those unused acres to use to benefit their church body or their community? Perhaps a paddock shift system could do very well for you.

Be blessed.
Be fruitful.
Stay relevant.
