From Bermuda Grass to Food Production: Permablitz! 
On Saturday, April 24th, twelve hands-on permaculture workshop participants came together to transform 300 square feet of Bermuda grass, mud and weeds into a productive edible landscape. eventually, this permablitzed landscape will yield more than 100 pounds of fruit, shade the driveway, channel runoff from the roof into an irrigation stream, provide beautiful flowers, and serve as a showcase for front-yard gardening and edible landscaping. 

Thanks to workshop leader Randy Marks, Sustainable OKC board member and owner of
 Land + Form sustainable land design; the hard-working Permablitz participants who transformed this landscape from pointless to productive - in one day; and to Transition OKC co-chair, Christine Patton, for organizing and hosting the workshop.
