John meets you at the top of our property, introduces the land and our history and discusses how we catch and disperse water using slope and an ephemeral pond.

John continues the tour of Brogo Permaculture Gardens taking you through the sub-tropical orchard and the citrus grove. Both have been through recent drought and a fire season but are flourishing after the rain.

Working down the property John covers aspects of growing on the NE slope and shows a little of the owner built house and off grid solar system
