Work with Small Farmers, Ranchers and our friends who are helping shape new Permaculture projects has become central to our California Story video project. We have added over 6 hours of new video materials this spring and summer to the project's web site.
Permaculture represents a holistic technique for re-shaping modern communities which embraces all aspects of community life.
• Water management
• Food production and distribution
• Energy creation and distribution
• House design
• Time management
• Re-integration of the Family as a core part of a sustainable community and economy
• Creation of Rural and Urban food forests and neighborhood gardens.
• Socially Responsible Media
All of these represent components of Permaculture Design that will give us the tools to re-weave the fabric of a sustainable world.
There is a need, now, to put in place the tool-kits which will allow us to begin a new education process to help bring permaculture design into our communities.
RAIN Network represents one of the parts of that new tool kit. Using new technologies to expand the range of education and communication RAIN brings to the table essential resources to help us build new jobs, new alternative energy sources and new participatory communication tools.
RAIN’s California Story web site is part of the process bringing new video and learning resources forward for easy access through the Internet. Beginning in 1989 RAIN has worked with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Department of Education, USGS and the National Endowment for the Arts to shape a new media, building an ever-growing Public Internet Broadcasting Network.
