small error - Geoff's pond is 800 m^2, not 80(per his linked site). But thank you - this is my first time seeing his material. I've been doing forest gardening for ~12 years on my site, and am thinking about developing a nearby natural depression as a pond - Geoff seems like exactly the kind of person I need to study.

If you need additional input you might also want to check out Sepp Holzer [0].

Ah, fat finger mistake.
Glad you like Geoff - he's a legend in permy circles, and for good reason. Check David Holmgren, Bill Mollison (the two co-founders of permaculture)... and you'll doubtless find lots of other people's work to investigate from there.
Permaculture pushes the idea of building systems that don't need a constant input of external resources... more difficult to design, but maintenance is naturally cheaper / easier, and more resilient.
