Designs stress ecological connections and closed energy and material loops. The core of permaculture is design and the working relationships and connections between all things.

OUR MISSION Revitalize Native and local communities through indigenous science, land stewardship, sustainable agriculture, community food security, and sustainable development. Promote awareness of human impacts on the natural environment and on Indigenous communities when unsustainable choices are made Use locally-available resources and demonstrate the power of conscious choices to create self-sufficient communities that care for and preserve Mother Earth We share traditional farming practices and apply environmentally and culturally-appropriate technology, with the ultimate goal of community food security, and do this work in an affordable way that builds capacity within the community. We see that people lack holistic support to design and implement community food security projects, inspired by indigenous peoples' understanding of how to live in place. As a non-profit organization our ability to continue relies upon your generous contributions.

Midwest Permaculture The Permaculture Project “Cultures cannot survive without a sustainable agricultural base and land use ethic. Permaculture is about the relationships we can create between minerals, plants, animals and humans by the way we place them in the landscape. The aim is to create systems that are ecologically sound and economically viable, which provide for their own needs, do not exploit or pollute, and are therefore sustainable in the long term.” Bill Mollison The Permaculture Project The Permaculture Project believes that education focuses our efforts to answer life’s fundamental questions. Learning the answers to these questions is best encouraged through love, nurturing, cooperation and reverence for all life. We seek to create positive and ethical lifestyle change, develop ecological and environmental harmony and stability for future generations, and teach appropriate technologies that sustain rather than harm. There is great benefit when intellectual knowledge is translated into personal experience and right and appropriate action.

Permaculture: Design For Living Permaculture is more than a new way of gardening - it's a sustainable way to live on planet Earth an Interview with Bill Mollison, by Alan AtKisson One of the articles in Making It Happen (IC#28) Spring 1991, Page 50 To order this issue ... Bill Mollison is a living legend. He's known as the genius of permaculture, "the David Brower of Australia," or a crusty old curmudgeon, depending on the source. But whether it's glowing admiration or sneering dismissal, reaction to Mollison is invariably strong. He is clearly one of the most interesting specimens of the human species - which he has spent years studying from a naturalist's behavioral perspective. He passed through Seattle recently with a film crew shooting a documentary about the far-flung successes of permaculture, a radically new (or, some have said, radically old) way of gardening, designing, and living sustainably by cooperating with nature. Ironically, we met in a downtown hotel room - filled with traffic noise - as we stalked a definition of permaculture and considered the eeriness of modern life. For a more detailed exploration, see Mollison's book Permaculture: A Designer's Manual , available for $34.95 (plus $3 shipping) from Permaculture Drylands, PO Box 27371, Tucson, AZ 85726, 602/824-3465.

Austin Permaculture Guild Portal to Austin area permaculture "We can't solve our problems using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."Albert Einstein *** NEWS: We are offering a Permaculture Basics Weekend May 17-18. Our next Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) course starts in September. See info on all of these classes below at right. The Sun-Cooking and Simple Living workshops on April 13 and April 20 are now FULL - check back for future dates. Our lead instructor, Dick Pierce, will travel to New England to teach a Basics Weekend in April; and two PDC courses, one in June and one in September. See info below at right. The next intensive Permaculture Design Certificate course at the Quiet Valley Ranch in Kerrville, TX, will be October 17 through 30 mark your calendars and stay tuned to the Kerrmaculture website for details.*** Permaculture is a worldwide movement defined by one of its founders, Bill Mollison, as "a design system for creating sustainable human environments." Another definition, coined by Austin permie Selwyn Polit, is "practical sustainability." People often arrive at permaculture through an interest in gardening, and certainly growing food where people live is an essential element of sustainable culture. But this design system also encompasses many other elements, including natural and green building, renewable energy, social activism, community-building, and alternative business and finance models. The Austin Permaculture Guild (formerly known as the Austin Area Permaculture Group) is a group of permaculture course graduates in and around Austin, TX, USA, who are dedicated to practicing, promoting, and teaching this approach to design and living. We offer classes throughout the year in Austin and other places around central Texas. Permaculture design courses are a rich mix of classroom learning, field trips, and hands-on projects. Graduates leave with skills, inspiration, and lots of new friends and business contacts. And because one of the graduation requirements is the completion of a site design project, you will also leave the course with your own site design.

A PERMACULTURE PRIMER Why this Primer? In July of 1995 we took a Permaculture course sponsored by the Institute of Bioregional Studies at the Ovens' Natural Park in Nova Scotia. The two week event was choreographed and informed by Michael Pilarski and Garry Lean, our primary instructors. The learning experience spilled over into all hours of the day as students, instructors, park owners, and guests interacted with and synergized each others' energies. At the end of the two weeks we had gained a new perspective on our lives, many new friends and a wealth of notes and references. It is the latter, the volumes of notes and references, that this web site attacks. Quite frankly, we were stuffed-full! We had just been through the equivalent of two college courses in two weeks and were suffering from information overload. We gave the material some incubation time and came back to it. We finally decided that the material could be organized into the five major areas around which this Primer is organized. The Principles which are the big ideas guiding decisions and helping in evaluation of design alternatives.
