ABOUT DAVID HOLMGREN

David Holmgren is best known as the co-originator with Bill Mollison of the
permaculture concept following the publication of "Permaculture One" in 1978.
Since then he has written several more books, developed three properties
using permaculture principles, conducted workshops and courses in Australia,
New Zealand, Israel, Italy, France, Britain, Germany, Denmark and Sweden. He
has consulted and supervised on urban and rural projects in Australia and New
Zealand.

Within the growing and international permaculture movement, David is
respected for his commitment to presenting permaculture ideas through
practical projects and teaching by personal example, that a sustainable
lifestyle is a realistic, attractive and powerful alternative to dependant
consumerism. At home (Hepburn Permaculture Gardens in central Victoria),
David is the vegetable gardener, silviculturalist, builder and general fix it
man.

The Fryers Forest Eco-village, also in central Victoria, has been his prime
focus in
recent years, where he performed many roles including planner and project
manager. As well as constant involvement in the practical side of
permaculture, David is passionate about the philosophical and conceptual
foundations for sustainability which are the focus of two books currently in
preparation.
