g'day marshall,
maybe you could take time out to read 'bill mollisons' 'introduction to
permaculture', for me permaculture does not take anything away from organic,
i use organic principles and permaculture principals in my gardening and
life style and apart from that permaculture goes one step further than
organic there is little difference in how food plants are grown. permacuture
doesn't use chemicals, so what about pc is not organic? we recycle, we look
after the habitat, we look after the soil structure and we try to be
sustainable within tha natural system.
i saw the post on the other forum, didn't respond as to me organic and pc go
hand in glove, there is nothing to debate. from my perspective permaculture
can be as simple as you need for it to fit your system or as complex as you
want it to be.
