BioIntensive Farming and Gardening
For great soil quality and space saving in the garden, consider biointensive gardening. The biointensive method is another great way to produce healthy organic food in your farm and/or garden. The people at Ecology Action: GROW BIOINTENSIVE have come up with eight essential aspects that are the foundation of GROW BIOINTENSIVE:
✧ Double-Dug, Raised Beds ✧ Composting ✧ Intensive Planting ✧ Companion Planting ✧ Carbon Farming ✧ Calorie Farming ✧ The Use of Open-Pollinated Seeds ✧ A Whole-System Farming Method
The following 9 part video series entitled GROW BIOINTENSIVE: A Beginner's Guide from John Jeavons and Cynthia Raiser Jeavons is available by clicking here

Keyline Principals or Concepts
Keyline design is a technique for maximizing beneficial use of water resources of a piece of land. The Keyline refers to a specific topographic feature linked to water flow. Beyond that however, Keyline can be seen as a collection of design principles, techniques and systems for development of rural and urban landscapes. Keyline design was developed in Australia by farmer and engineer P. A. Yeomans, and described and explained in his books The Keyline Plan, The Challenge of Landscape, Water For Every Farm and The City Forest.
The following is from Wikipedia
Percival Alfred Yeomans (1905 – 1984) was an Australian inventor known for the Keyline system for the development of land and increasing the fertility of that land. As a mining engineer and gold assayer, Yeomans had developed a keen sense of hydrology and equipment design. Upon his brother-in-law’s death in a grass fire, PA Yeomans assumed management of a large tract of land he later named Nevallan in New South Wales. Here he developed improved methods and equipment for cultivation. His designs won him The Prince Philip Design Award in 1974.
His Keyline principles or concepts (Keyline Design) have been adopted by farm owners in almost every country in the world. Yeomans’ Keyline concepts are now part of the curriculum of many sustainable agriculture courses in colleges and universities across the world. His ideas have also been a key factor in the development of permaculture design. P.A. Yeomans wrote four books; The Keyline Plan, The Challenge of Landscape, Water For Every Farm and The City Forest.
