What is Permaculture?
Permaculture is a design philosophy for creating regenerative human habitats. Utilizing principles of ecology, permaculture can be used to develop greater-than-sustainable systems that meet human needs for food, water, shelter, and other goods and services, in a way that leaves the earth healthier for all future generations.
