Click here to see photo galleries of Leaf Street, including images taken by Hazel Healy several years ago, and scenes from the 72 hour permacultue design course in Jun 1999, when the project was initiated.
Watch the amazing movie (Part 1), by Ruth Strange (ex Leafy St resident) about the early days of the garden:

The Spiral
Hi Rob,
what an inspiring spiral! I have not seen any railway sleepers out here in El Salvador, but it has set me thinking about a use for some of the massive boulders which litter our land....I have saved the image for Karen to see,
Best regards
Peter
