Re: maybe the ultimate companion planting?

you know, I'm not sure what they do with the "yard waste". (I live in an apartment building, making my own soil out on the patio, or I would know...)It *must* be being used somewhere--maybe parks;or they wouldn't care that it goes in special bags for collection. We have quite an extensive recycling program, and pesticides/herbicides on lawns are now banned, thank goodness.

I just look at rows and rows of hedges and think of them holding up their thin fingers, crying, "give me your leaves!"
It seems so unfeeling, to bag them all and send them away.

I was up late looking at all the action down your way with permaculture. All the pople I'd like to study with are in Australia, it looks like. Came across someone who teaches up here, (I'm in Canada)described as a poet permaculturist...Sounds a bit self-cherishing. Seems like the Australians are more straightforward about it all. Less posture. Not trying to turn the instruction into a self-empowerment exercise, which it already is!
