These are a wonderful set of videos and more relevant to kitchen gardening than some of the permaculture stuff (interesting thought that is).

I use sunken beds, instead of raised beds. Our area is semi-arid and it helps to conserve moisture. My method is a hybrid between Emily Hazlip's and the Zuni "waffle garden". I have been doing this for 6 years, it really does work and the soils become richer every year. This is a most amazing video and a favorite of mine.

How does this system work in high winds? What can be used to keep the mulch down?

Some good ideas there I might use. Would have to see my potato harvest in my kitchen before I would believe I could get enough without digging though! Having said that I once grew some under black plastic (few years ago! wouldn't do that now) and they where surprisingly close to the surface... Shat try a row and see..

Good vid.Is there any scientific proof for marigolds?

The daikons and the rebuilding of the soil as per Fukuoka will help re-establish the soil in order for you to be able to do what Ms. Emilia Hazlip did in France.

It is actually the MOST sustainable way. Dumping fertilizers on the ground actually removes nutrients and makes the gardener / farmer dependent on the chemicals, which, in turn go into you.

This is one of the most sustainable ways to grow vegetables, if not the most sustainable way!
