Publisher's Synopsis
Permaculture Design is a powerful tool for creating systems that meet our humans needs while supporting the ecosystem as a whole. It applies ecological principles to designing gardens, farms, community projects and human settlements. The standard 72 hour Permaculture Design Course (PDC) is taught worldwide to farmers, gardeners, design professionals and everyday folk who are interested in creating a healthier, more equitable planet.
Rosemary Morrow provides information on each unit of the PDC's curriculum. Using real life experience and gathered evidence of permaculture's effectiveness, this fully revised and updated edition contains a wealth of technical information for teaching a PDC. Included in this text are new findings in emerging disciplines, such as regenerative agriculture.
An important text for teachers and students in the areas of:
- Architecture
- Landscape design
- Ecology
- Geography
