Who is Bill Mollison?
These videos are documents from two design courses taught by Bill
Mollison at the Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in Glen Rose Texas in 1994
and 1995. They are a definitive selection from our original 16 part
series. These tapes bear many viewings and will benefit anyone who wants
to learn how to help regenerate the earth - from back yard to
bio-region. Teachers of permaculture have found these tapes to be a
valuable coaching tool - edited to one hour.
