permaculture
Permaculture is the brainchild of two clever Aussies, Bill Mollison and David Holgrem. It’s now a 30 year old sustainable approach to domestic and broadacre farming.
The principles integrate a range of disciplines from architecture to soil conservation and everything in between. The organically inclusive nature of permaculture’s approach to growing food is both philosophical and systematic.
While conventional approaches to agriculture have sort to isolate the production of food, from nature and reduce the complexity, permaculture embraces natures’ complexity and seeks to work with all aspects of organic life. The result is a less struggle approach which creates a greater harmony with the environment providing more bang for your buck.
