Permaculture: A word coined by Bill Mollison and David Holmgren
from Permanent and Culture because no culture can be sustainable
with out a permanent agriculture system. A typical permaculture
site is biodiverse, has mainly perennials and tree crops in a
natralistic design. Usually it is a no till system using mulch.
And it does not have: chemical pesticides, herbicides or
fertilizer. Typically these systems are low labour.
