It was the result of many many hours of collective work, and it turned out pretty well! We cut it from 14 mins to 5 ( no mean feat - we listened to every syllable many times...)The result is informative, and I hope the ideas are adopted far and wide. If you can spare 5 minutes, watch it!Scroll down to the contest page and click in. Please forward to everyone you can possibly imagine.We thank you!Blessings and PermacultureJohnny, Victoria, Ben, Ani and Jack

Subject: RE: Your Film Has Been Approved!Voting began today for the Make A Film Make A Difference contest put on by Possible Future Films in connection with the Pachamama Alliance.
Really and truly hope you will consider sharing the link for voting with the Ayni email list because:
- The contest was announced at the April Love Grid by Gabby and the Pachamama Alliance
- The film idea and content were then suggested at the same Love Grid
- The movie was ultimately made because of the networks and connections shared at the Love Grid
- It's um, well, a work of LOVE!

Ani was instrumental in this- she brought Gabby to the Love Grid several months ago.It's called The Permanent Garden- Restore Your Yard, Sustain your Life.It would be great if you'd vote for it- even better if you'd watch it!And really great if you start growing some edibles and sheet mulch your lawn!!!We ask humbly that you forward this suggestion to as many community members as humanly ( or supernaturally ) possible.Blessings and TransformationJohnny, Ben and Victoria
