Creeping slowly above the treetops and up, up and away. Surely such clear skies and glorious golden rays of light would be a film makers dream! But not so, they piled through our door at 8:30am one by one horrified at the hot spots and wishing for overcast skies, a mini crew from Better Homes and Gardens&#8230;it was no ordinary day.<\/p>\n<p>Here at <a style=\"color: #6699ff;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Desert Echo Permaculture Design HQ<\/a> we are exicted to have our flemington permaculture garden feature as part of the Community Gardening segment on <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BH&amp;G<\/a> on 31st May this month! A great big shout out to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.permablitz.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the Permablitz team<\/a> for suggesting us for the show.<\/p>\n<p>Dylan did his very best to avoid camera time by acquiring a black eye two days before filming at Jujitsu practice (Accident or intentional? we&#8217;ll never know!) Which removed my fear of being relegated a mute nodding head in the back of every frame, to a new and far more terrifying prospect of being the main talking head! The English language (my native tongue) leaves me at the best of times, but in front of a camera! Eek! Luckily Jason Hodges, the host, and his crew were so lovely and down to earth, chatting so warmly with us between takes, it was actually an amazingly fun experience. It didn&#8217;t stop me from making some clangers, (my attempt at saying &#8220;reciprocity&#8221; a highlight), but it really was so so cool seeing how a show is made.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you all tune in 4 weeks from now to show how popular Permaculture is, it would be so great for BH&amp;G to pick it up in a big way! I might even gift you with some unintentionally terrible soundbites, hopefully some good ones to, but definitely a great close-up shot of me picking an eggplant! Hand modelling, with my gardener&#8217;s hands?&#8230;. probably not.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4767\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/film-crew-permaculture-community-garden-permablitz.jpg?resize=665%2C670\" alt=\"film-crew-permaculture-community-garden-permablitz\" width=\"665\" height=\"670\"><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4765\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/behind-the-scenes-permaculture-garden.jpg?resize=665%2C296\" alt=\"behind-the-scenes-permaculture-garden\" width=\"665\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/behind-the-scenes-permaculture-garden.jpg?w=900&amp;ssl=1 900w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/behind-the-scenes-permaculture-garden.jpg?resize=660%2C293&amp;ssl=1 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4760\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/filming-better-homes-and-gardens-crew.jpg?resize=665%2C443\" alt=\"filming--better-homes-and-gardens-crew\" width=\"665\" height=\"443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/filming-better-homes-and-gardens-crew.jpg?w=900&amp;ssl=1 900w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/filming-better-homes-and-gardens-crew.jpg?resize=660%2C439&amp;ssl=1 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><br \/>\n<br style=\"clear: both;\"><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4763\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/jason-hodge-host-permaculture-community-garden.jpg?resize=665%2C499\" alt=\"jason-hodge-host-permaculture-community-garden\" width=\"665\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/jason-hodge-host-permaculture-community-garden.jpg?w=900&amp;ssl=1 900w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/jason-hodge-host-permaculture-community-garden.jpg?resize=660%2C494&amp;ssl=1 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4762\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/flemington-pemaculture-garden-filming.jpg?resize=665%2C499\" alt=\"flemington-pemaculture-garden-filming\" width=\"665\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/flemington-pemaculture-garden-filming.jpg?w=900&amp;ssl=1 900w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.thedesertecho.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/flemington-pemaculture-garden-filming.jpg?resize=660%2C494&amp;ssl=1 660w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>behind the scenes of a permaculture home garden The sky turned from white to crystal blue as a hot air balloon gently rose to greet the day.
