HeartBeet Farm and Permaculture Center

Keith Johnson and Peter Bane started developing HeartBeet Farm and Permaculture Center on a sandy 10-acre site in Montague, Michigan, in winter 2014. Since then, they’ve had many years of land design experience as gardeners, landscapers, consultants to farmers, homeowners, and homesteaders. Farming in beach sand is no small challenge, especially with hot sun and drying winds. Nevertheless, with minerals, mulch, and compost, the land is changing to one much more supportive of life. Keith also serves on the editorial staff of Permaculture Activist Magazine. Follow Keith and Peter at permacultureactivist.net
