Permaculture

Permaculture is a system for designing self-sustainable human settlement. It is a philosophy of sustainability which weaves together land use, micro climate, soil types, annual and perennial plants, water availability and human needs into an intricately connected self maintaining cycle.

Permaculture principles can be applied equally to large farms or to small scale sub-urban gardens and yards. In both cases permaculture offers better opportunities for efficient resource management and sustainable food development.
