Permaculture is an ecological design system for meeting essential human needs in sustainable ways. This movement has emerged from its earliest roots in tropical and sub-tropical rural environments to have a growing and dynamic impact in the northern hemisphere and in cities around the world. From yard-scale food production to neighborhood revitalization and the creation of resilient communities, cities are fertile ground for the permaculture vision. This workshop will explore key permaculture design principles and strategies for permaculture work in our own yards, communities, towns and cities as well as practical approaches to working with energy, soil, water, plants, animals and people. We will also consider inspiring real life examples of permaculture projects from North America and beyond.
