I’ve long been a fan of Linda Cockburn’s blog since reading her book, Living The Good Life, which is about her attempts, together with partner Trev and son Caleb, to go 6 months, living off what they could produce and without spending a dollar. They were living in Queensland at the time and have since relocated to Tasmania, built a strawbale home, and developed a huge food garden which fills me with envy every time I see a picture of it.
Linda has a new project, to produce a video helping people meet the challenges of a changing world. Her post about it is here. The Peak Challenge site is here, where you can read about the project and pledge a donation to help Linda finish it.
I’ve pledged to help fund Linda’s efforts. Whatever she does, she will do it far better than I ever could.

We all do what we do Bev and you are inspiring many of us to learn new techniques and put what we have to good use. Don’t sell yourself short. I follow your blog but not Linda’s. I read her wonderful book and did follow her blog for a while but your blog gives me much more and is in line with where we are and what we are doing. Cheers for all of YOUR efforts 🙂

I agree with Fran completely. I follow Linda’s blog and love what she is doing. You are both inspiring and both encouraging and both have much to offer.
Her project is wonderful and well worth supporting as it tried to educate the masses but your posts on cuttings are very frugal and helpful too, probably more so to me as I try to grow plants from seed. 🙂

Well, thanks Girls, for the nice comments. Glad to have helped in any way. That’s the whole idea of this blog after all.
