Hello all,

I have a question and wonder if anyone has run into this situation:
A permaculture enthusiast in Taiwan is starting to produce some products on
his small farm and wishes to sell them by using the word "permaculture" in
his labeling or sales. He's been asking if there's some certification for
permaculture. I tend to think that a "permaculture product certification
system" sounds absurd as permaculture is (to me) more of an
ethical direction rather than something that can be quantified or certified.
But i could be wrong and i don't want to misinform this person, so i'd like
to ask others out there how they would respond to this or if there actually
is a certification system out there. Perhaps a "self-evaluation" would more
more suitable.
