Sure would be a great thing and one of the first things I would have done if not for the council…. We back onto a world heritage listed park and I’m am fearful as to what the costs might be if they discovered what I was doing and insisted on an environmental impact investigation and subsequent clean up… So this is definitely something I WILL NOT DO! Or at least it is something you will never see a clip about…(wink, wink, nudge, nudge say no more ;-))… Chris

Great Vid series, incorporating humanure toilets into the perma design saves tremendously on water usage, plumbing problems, and returns vital nutrients safely back into the environment. Cheers

How true! This is the one big positive value of the internet to spread and share information from all around the World. It’s the only way forward.

Hi Chris, I just found your first video, what a great place you show us.
I go to your other video’s in a moment, because I really want to see what you have done to the place this last year. I have a great memory of you guys on the Zaytuna farm last winter, and I like it to see you here on the video again.
Hi friend from downunder, it’s nice to make this little contact. Toos Tuin

Thanks… Several months have gone by since this survey… It’s a good record for me to look back and take stock of what has changed… I’ll try to put together an update on our design implementation later this year… 🙂

Hi Chris, you did a marvelous job on the sire survey. I am surprised that you said you were new to video as well. You transition from location to location are well thought out. I am going to subcribe because I have a distinct feeling that you are going to give the youtube community some great videos to watch. Thanks so much for doing your video series. Your friend from Oklahoma. -Steve
