Plants for a Future is a project based in Cornwall which seeks to gather together and disseminate information on the many useful properties of plants, partularly those plants which are less common in todays society. They also have a beutiful patch of land which they are tending according to vegan-organic-permaculture principles. and concentrating on Perennial plants. They have produced many leaflets (show below) as well as a catalogue of plants available from them. One major project has been the construction of a database of useful plants which contains over 7000 species, which is now avaliable online. The project has reciently been granted charity status reg. no. 1057719.
The next exciting phase of the PFAF project will be the creation of an Eco-Village. This will enable a truely sustainable community to develope where all the needs are catered for by using plants grown on site.
Wow we've got one of those best of the web type awards. Who'd have thought it.
And we are a gold site on
NetGuide.
Actually our sister site
The Plant Tracker
got lots of "net-fame" when the species database went online.
We got pick of the weeks from webcrawler, yahoo, netscape and several others.
Plus (I'm quite chuffed on this one) the plant tracker was the
Whats Sores
site in December on
enviro-link.
Nice one to School of Computer Science at Leeds Uni for the web space.
