Re: Permaculture in Alice Springs
Thanks for the info, Martin. We haven't spent any time with the
Pitjantjatjara people. We are working mainly with Walpiri and Arriente
who, to put it mildly, don't get on with the Pitjantjatjara.
We will make it our business to follow this up and see what we can find
out.
Regards
Mike Mattys
