A Case Study in Design Against Bushfire
This small book is packed with information about the principles and practice of fire resistant, landscape and house design in ways in which are energy efficient, sustainable and productive: the essence of permaculture. It takes the form of a case study design? for a property burnt out in the catastrophic Ash Wednesday fires of 1983 in the Dandenong Ranges of Victoria. This work has been applied in many designs by Holmgren Design Services including Hepburn Permaculture Gardens. The ideas are applicable to all fire prone regions.

TREES ON THE TREELESS PLAINS:
Revegetation Manual For The Volcanic Landscapes Of Central Victoria

This design manual is a result of years of research and observation into the role and potential of trees and shrubs on farms. It addresses the transformation of broader farm landscapes through the application of permaculture principles to revegetation. The manual includes revegetation strategies and design solutions relevant to increasing and diversifying farm productivity while stabilising the landscape. It also address the public land on roadsides, stream sides and reserves.
The case study approach of the manual uses the volcanic landscapes as a focus to describe land types, local native species and to provide strategies, design solutions and species lists. It is directly relevant to some of the most valuable agricultural land in Victoria including the extensive Western Districts. A comprehensive species index of native and introduced trees and shrubs with proven performance provides a ready guide to species selection for different situations and purposes. For private and public land managers of the volcanic landscapes this manual is an essential reference.
For a wider audience concerned with revegetation, this book provides a design system approach and principles applicable everywhere to assist in the development of local strategies and design solutions.
