Today’s guest is Jesse Tack based out of Ypsilanti, Michigan. Jesse founded and helps run the very active permaculture group; Abundant Michigan Permaculture Ypsilanti. Or AMPY for short. We get to hear about how AMPY got started and has evolved since then. Jesse also talks about his recent SPIN farming project. SPIN stands for small-plot intensive, and is a model for turning urban or suburban lawns and yards into a productive and profitable organic veggie production farm. That and more coming right up, stay tuned…
