We are planning an article on farmscaping for the Sept. issue of Farmer to
farmer, a quarterly journal on susag. for conventional farmers. Does
anyone have any good examples or references to share on this topic? As I
see it, the point is that having a diverse ecosystem on the farm--one
that encourages all manner of species--brings numerous benefits to the
farmer and the community at large. What I hope to do is explain some of
thsoe benefits to our conventional readers, as well as describe how to
get started. We will use success stories to highlight major points.
Thanks!
