Urban Forest Gardens

Here's a Youtube embed of a new film featuring stills of urban forest gardens in the southeast of England. There're no shots of Leafy Street unfortunately, but there are some really beautiful images of productive, and diverse forest gardens reaching mature states. Thanks to Graham Burnet and Spiralseeds for this video:

ABUNDANCE: Urban agriculture in Brixton, London.

This film features a lecturer in the Development Planning Unit from the University of Central London, called Robert Biel. He talks in depth about global famine, Cuba, Peak Oil, and the relevance of low input urban food production. He doesn't mention permaculture or pemaculture, but he's certainly thinking along similar lines. It doesn't seem to have any direct relevance to Abundance, as in the new project in Manchester, or the Sheffield project. The project is funded by Urban Buzz::

GROFUN community growing project By Nadia Catkin 

GROFUN is a beautifully simple idea with a beautifully silly name. GROFUN stands for 'Growing Real organic food in Urban Neighbourhoods' and coordinates groups of neighbours in communities cooperatively growing food in their own back gardens, sharing labour, skills, resources and last but not least-the delciious home-grown produce itself.
