WHAT IS PERMACULTURE?

Permaculture is the art and science of 
ecologically designing human
beings' place in the environment, 
incorporating agriculture, hydrology,
architecture, forestry, alternative energy 
and economics. Far beyond
landscaping, permaculture integrates food, 
shelter, energy, water,
trees/plants, wildlife, livestock, weather, 
waste management, economics
and social sciences.

Permaculturists reclaim devastated lands, 
roll back deserts, sustainably
produce 16 times the yield of industrial 
agriculture, with food
containing up to 3 times the nutrients, run 
their cars on
43-cent-per-gallon biofuels, retire 
comfortably or pay for a child’s
college education by planting long term high 
value crops, build socially
just regional economic systems &design 
profitable AND ethical
planet-based livelihoods. Another world is 
not only possible but
Permaculture gives you the tools to make it 
happen.
