PERMACULTURE FILM CLUB: Gracie’s Backyard with Richard Perkins, Ridgedale Permaculture Farm, Sweden

Gracie’s Backyard is a documentary film about the “northernmost commercial permaculture farm on the planet”. Located at 59 degrees North near Sunne, Sweden, Ridgedale Permaculture is a 10-hectare farm, at the time this film was made, integrated pastured eggs, broiler chickens, market gardens, agro-forestry systems (and more!) into an enterprise that creates livelihoods while regenerating landscapes.

Discover how Richard Perkins and his partner Yohanna Amselem managed to turn this abandoned farm into a vibrant place that is now part working farm, part education hub. The farm continues to thrive and evolve. Richard is a prolific educator, hosts courses at his farm and online, has written extensively in his book, Regenerative Agriculture and shares extensively on YouTube.
