I have written a FAQ with thorough explanations of all of this for the
market-farming list which can be read at: http://www.ibiblio.org/intergarden/documents/market-farming.faq
All the information in this document applies to this list
Until I make a copy of it and adapt it to this permaculture list
just do a search and replace routine: replace the words
"market-farming" with "permaculture".
