The Urban Permaculture Podcast

by Heather Butler

Day by day, Bob and Heather are transforming their home in the city into a busy Urban Permaculture Homestead. Follow along and learn how they are creating their own little slice of farmland in the middle of a historic district in an Ohio City. Bob and Heather own Hogs and Hens Urban Farm. They are in zone 6a, and have just shy of 1/2 acre of land right in the middle of the city. See how they break the cycle of commercial dependence by creating food abundance!
