Regenerating the land, the mindset and the people through syntropic agroforestry

This book is an answer to countless reguests from my students to get written information about syntropic agroforestry after doing a practical course. They want it as a guide in their efforts to create their own farms. This material has been extended, reedited over time but it was never my intention to publish this guide. I changed my viewpoint about it when i recently did a workshop with the brave Samburu ladies in Umoja in Kenya, a women's refuge for rape, sexual violence, domestic violence and female circumcision. They live in an extreme dry climate and for their still young and vulnerable foodforest they need to walk at least 1000 meters to the river to fetch water and carry the heavy jerrycans back to the food forest. They asked me to help them to collect money to implement a water pump tht will bring the water in their forest. and since all i possess is my knowledge the only way to honor their wish is to publish this book and use it to generate money for them. So the mayor part of the revenues will be used to collect money for that pump, except for publishing costs. There is no copyright restriction on this book, please use anything you wish for in the end we don't have time to lose to regenerate this planet. Besides that this knowledge is not mine but it belongs to the community at large. If you feel like having this guide and you would like to support the greening of the desert in Samburu county, don't hesistate and purchase a copy.
