With self-isolation and physical distancing measures in place and no gardening outside… yet. Let’s be honest we are watching more TV than normal. I have started scouring the internet and free resources like Edmonton Public Library to find a wide variety of permaculture-based FREE movies to keep you inspired for the spring. While I haven’t watched many myself I’m excited to dive in and see what these movies have in store!
By no means is this a complete list. If you have any suggestions let us know by emailing edmontonpermacultureguild@gmail.com
