What is Permaculture?

Permaculture (PERMAnent agriCULTURE or PERMAnent CULTURE) is a sustainable design science based on the observation of natural systems, focusing on the harmonious interrelationship of humans, plants, animals and the Earth.

What is Permaculture Design?-From the Founder of permaculture Bill Mollison's website, www.tagari.com :

The philosophy of Permaculture is to reduce the impact that human settlements have on non-renewable and renewable resources, while creating an abundant living environment, catering to the needs of all living creatures. Permaculture is a science developed through the observation and analysis of natural systems. Through this analysis set structural patterns common to all natural systems emerge. Permaculture design then applies these “Patterns” to the development of sustainable human settlements, harmoniously integrating landscape and people while providing food, energy, shelter, and other material and non-material needs in a sustainable way.
