Permaculture is a ‘whole systems design approach’ for ecological and sustainable living.

Explore the ethics and principles of Permaculture, then build and plant a no-dig vegie bed and prepare an existing orchard for a food forest makeover.

"Permaculture is about designing sustainable human settlements. It is a philosophy and an approach to land use which weaves together microclimate, annual and perennial plants, animals, soils, water management, and human needs into intricately connected, productive communities” Bill Mollison, 1991.
