Greeting permaculturists!

If you consider yourself a "Permaculture Farmer," Please take a few moments 
(no more than 15 minutes) to fill out a brief questionnaire at:

Your input is much appreciated!!!

A little note about me:
My name is Wendi Bellows and I am a Ph.D. student in Interdisciplinary 
Ecology at the University of Florida and have been a permie for more than 10 
years. That is why I am undertaking social research related to Permaculture 
for my dissertation. I have noticed that Permaculture has remained on the 
fringe of the mainstream since its birth in the 1970s. Therefore, a main 
focus of my dissertation research is to discover and better understand the 
barriers of diffusion of Permaculture to more mainstream farmer populations 
in the U.S. and Australia. I would like to make this process as inclusive and 
helpful to the Permaculture movement as possible.


Thank you!
