SERIES 30 | Episode 19 Guest presenter Hannah Moloney takes us to the home of a young Tasmanian couple, and shows us that with great planning, great mates, great ideas and some hard yakka, a barren backyard can be transformed into the beginnings of a food forest, in just one weekend! Permaculture gardens, like this one, are highly productive, and are designed to offer a huge volume and variety of edibles, including perennial and annual herbs, seasonal vegetables, fruiting trees and native edibles. The zones are: Zone 1 - Intensive annual food gardens which are closest to the house; a series of beds running across the contours of the slope and herbs and food along the back of the deck & fence line. - Intensive annual food gardens which are closest to the house; a series of beds running across the contours of the slope and herbs and food along the back of the deck & fence line. For Kat and Zac their zone 4 is the creek line along the boundary which contains some weedy shrubs that happen to be perfect fodder for their future goats, as well as habitat.
