Abstract
In this 15 minute film on homestead design, Jacob encourages us to start at the beginning, and to consider the layout of our homesteads - thinking carefully about the resources we have and need, in order to optimise our productive potential with a more integrated design. Key aspects include human needs when thinking about water capture, soil management, nursery placement, livestock protection, as well as pollination, crops and shelter belts.
