Permaculture is a branch of ecological design, ecological engineering, environmental design, construction and integrated water resources management that develops sustainable architecture, regenerative and self-maintained habitat and agricultural systems modeled from natural ecosystems. (scroll to the bottom of this description to see more ways permaculture is described)New in box. The information was derived from hundreds of years of living and experience gleaned from the founders and leaders in the natural living and permaculture movement. PERMACULTURE: Graham Bell, The Permaculture WayPermaculture is the conscious design and maintenance of agriculturally productive systems which have the diversity, stability, and resilience of natural ecosystems. It is the harmonious integration of the landscape with people providing their food, energy, shelter and other material and non-material needs in a sustainable way. Simon HendersonPermaculture is the use of ecology as the basis for designing integrated systems of food production, housing appropriate technology and community development. It offers a practical, creative approach to the problems of diminishing resources and threatened life support systems now facing the world. Guy BaldwinPermaculture is a holistic approach to landscape design and human culture. It is an attempt to integrate several disciplines, including biology, ecology, geography, agriculture, architecture, appropriate technology, gardening and community building. Dan HemenwayPermaculture integrates people into Nature's design. A permaculture design provides us with shelter, food, water, income, community and aesthetic and spiritual fulfillment within a balanced and healthy biological community.Permaculture is Applied Science and Ecology; Ethical design of human systems for a sustainable future. It offers practical solutions to the global environmental and cultural crises we now face. Permaculture (Permanent Culture) is the conscious design and co-creative evolution of agriculturally productive ecosystems and cooperative and economically just social systems which have the diversity, stability and resilience of 'natural' systems. It is the harmonious integration of landscape and people providing their food, energy, shelter and other material and non-material needs in a sustainable way. The practice and development of liberating mental, emotional and spiritual ways of being. It seeks to provide a sustainable and secure place for living things on this earth. Dan HemenwayPermaculture seeks to design sustainable lifestyles based on conditions unique to each place and designed according to the same principles by which nature integrates other species into her ecosystems. While permaculture obtains its design principles through careful study and search for comparable principles in nature, permaculture strategies are based on the realities of the 20th century. Brian HutchinsonPermaculture is knowing/creating one?s outer aspects, to connect them in complex webs that catch incoming energies in stable, low-entropy zoos.Permaculture is logarithmic; the biggest things you see are your nose, home, immediate surroundings & internal conditions - start inside & work outward. Permaculture is the unhurried, non-threatening dissolution of all states, & subsequent reactivation of corporate, investor, government & ghetto welfare stubs. To lessen existential fears through reduction of created wants & abundance of all needs, in the broadest sense, that beings may achieve higher conscienceness or whatever. Bill MollisonPermaculture is a philosophy of working with, rather than against nature; of protracted & thoughtful observation rather than protracted & thoughtless labour; & of looking at plants & animals in all their functions, rather than treating any area as a single-product system. Bill MollisonPermaculture. A copyright word, owned as a common copyright by the Permaculture Institutes & their graduates. Derived from ?Permanent? and ?Culture?, as follows:Permanent: From the Latin permanens, to remain to the end, to persist throughout (per = through, manere = to continue) Culture: From the Latin cultura - cultivation of land, or the intellect. Now generalized to mean all those habits, beliefs, or activities than sustain human societies. Thus, Permaculture is the study of the design of those sustainable or enduring systems that support human society, both agricultural & intellectual, traditional & scientific, architectural, financial & legal. It is the study of integrated systems, for the purpose of better design & application of such systems. Bill MollisonPermaculture is a philosophy of working with, rather than against nature; of protracted & thoughtful observation rather than protracted & thoughtless action; of looking at systems in all their functions rather than asking only one yield of them & of allowing systems to demonstrate their own evolutions. Dawn ShinerPermaculture...an ethical design tool, creating sustainability through the integration of diversity, stability, & resilience in ecologically-sound, economically-viable human environments respecting the whole of creation Patricia DuBose MichaelPermaculture is the harmonious integration of people into the landscape in such a way that the land grows in richness & aesthetic beauty. Ben HaggardPermaculture is a design system that reconciles human communities with the ecological imperatives of a living planet. Permaculture design may be used to restore ecosystems, create sustainable farms & healthy towns, & promote economic systems that support Earth care.Permaculture provides an ethical & holistic foundation for sustainable culture. The principles are derived from three basic ethics: Care for the Earth; Care for people; Limit needs & reinvest in the future The core emphasis of permaculture is that landscapes are complex & integrated wholes. Ecosystems are healthy & relatively stable when their parts are connected in a diverse web of relationships. In a Permaculture design, decisions flow naturally from observations of these relationships. Decisions that arise from connection are inherently functional & frequently beautiful. Permaculture uses the energies of wind, sun, water, soil & the myriad biological processes of the world?s organisms. These powerful energies, used appropriately, assist in reclaiming soils. Forest, prairie, & river systems regenerate. waste products are minimal & reused. Human Communities provide for their own needs in small, efficient farms & gardens, allowing the broad landscape to return to health. Permaculture is a body of knowledge, susceptible to learning & teaching. But it is is also a way of organizing knowledge, a connecting system that integrates science, art, politics, anthropology, sociology, psychology, & the diverse experiences & resources available in any community. Peter BanePermaculture is the conscious design of ?cultivated? ecosystems that have the diversity, stability, & resilience of natural ecosystems. It is a harmonious integration of people into the landscape in such a way that the land grows in richness, productivity, and aesthetic beauty.Permaculture is an ethical design system for creating human environments that are ecologically sound & economically viable. Permaculture systems provide for their own needs, do not exploit or pollute, & are therefore sustainable. Larry Santoyo & Simon HendersonPermaculture (permanent-culture) is an innovative science that balances community development with ecological sensitivity. Bill Mollison & Scott PittmanPermaculture (Permanent Agriculture) is the conscious design and maintenance of cultivated ecosystems which have the diversity, stability & resilience of natural ecosystems. It is the harmonious integration of landscape, people & appropriate technologies, providing good, shelter, energy & other needs in a sustainable way. Permaculture is a philosophy and an approach to land use which works with natural rhythms & patterns, weaving together the elements of microclimate, annual & perennial plants, animals, water & soil management, & human needs into intricately connected & productive communities. John IrwinPermaculture is the conscious design of a human-centered ecosystem, which is balanced and abundant enouth that the inhabitants never run out of anything or pollute anything. Dawn ShinerPatterned after the natural & diverse systems of nature, PERMACULTURE is a design science that weaves together our individual human needs with the microclimates, plants, animals, micro-organisms, water & soil management, thus allowing us as individuals to take responsibility for our life-styles & design our way out of unsustainable cultural patterns while meeting the realities of the 20th Century. Ben HaggardPermaculture (Permanent Agriculture or Permanent Culture) is the conscious design of a sustainable future based on co-operating with Nature & caring for the Earth & its people.Permaculture draws together the skills & knowledge of many ecologically sound disciplines - from traditional to modern - to create ways of providing for our needs, including food, shelter & financial & social structures. It empowers the individual to be resourceful, self-reliant & a conscious part of the solution to the many problems facing us, both locally & globally. Permaculture design may be used to restore ecosystems; creator sustainable farms & healthy towns; & promote economic systems that support earth care. Bill MollisonPermanent agriculture can be regarded as a valid, safe, & sustainable, completer energy system. the needs of the system for energy are provided by the system. Without permanent agriculture there is no possibility of a stable social order. Declan KennedyThe term ?Permaculture? defines a design method which abandons the linear sectoral organization of human support systems (such as agriculture, energy & water management, architecture, urban planning, education, recreation, administration, etc.) in order to create linkages between the various elements needed for each specific task. Thus each element enhances the function of all others - similar to the way in which highly developed organisms work. The results are often stunning. Both in urban & rural settings, Permaculture examples demonstrate how the optimization of the overall ? yield? saves work (i.e., time & energy) & creates beauty, flexibility, & responsiveness. Applied on a larger scale, we could create abundance everywhere in the world. All we need is human intelligence, courage, & insight. Dan Hemenway?Permaculture? is a term used to describe the application of ecosystem design principles to design sustainable human habitation, including supply of water, food, energy, shelter, income, aesthetics, community & other needs, & amenities. Permaculture stresses careful observation & integration into natural design for each place as an alternative both to the drudgery of continually laboring & to excessive reliance on complex technologies, which are inherently unstable. Gus & LaNada James Permaculture combines current technology with aboriginal cultural knowledge collected over generations: to create self-contained, self perpetuating ecological systems. This includes growing edible (& nutritious) plants, fish & animals; as well as the application of appropriate technology to create energy from solar, wind, water, & compost. Bill MollisonPermaculture seeks the Garden of Eden & why not?The overall aim of permaculture design is to produce an efficient low-maintenance productive integration of plants, animals, structures & man; with the ultimate result of on-site stability & food self-sufficiency in the smallest practical area. The aim is also to plan for craft or other products on larger areas, that yield a trade or commercial potential for clients, again as diverse products resources. The design should aim for a total, secure, long-term integration of all elements; stability & diversity are the keynotes. Conservation of soil, water, & energy are central issues. The system combines rational landscape design, organic gardening methods, & alternative energy systems into a unified design encompassing many trades, skill, & disciplines. Alison PeckPermaculture gains its name from the dream of a permanent, sustainable agriculture & culture. Permaculture expands edible landscaping to consider all of the elements that are part of a natural self-sustaining landscape. Taking inspiration from Aikido, Permaculture works with natural forces to create productive landscapes rather than forcing production with inputs of energy & chemicals. The elements, the earth, plants & animals, are woven into a complex, balanced landscape providing good shelter, energy & more. A permaculture can be created in a back yard or with many acres; it can range from a minimum maintenance condominium planting to a productive farm. A carefully created permacultural landscape requires no more intervention to be healthy & productive than a mountain meadow needs weeding or watering. Pat Marie Sigler?Permaculture? is a way of designing and living sustainably by cooperating with nature. It is based on one of the great principles of design -- Do something basically right & everything gets much more right of itself. Permaculture aims to create productive ecosystems that are both regenerative & self-regulating. It proceeds from commonly accepted ethical principles:P CARE FOR EARTH; CARE FOR PEOPLE; CARE FOR COMMUNITY. Permaculture helps people rethink the whole basis of how they are going to live. It requires a shift from passive learning to active participation. It requires that what is learned about energy, physics, ecosystems, water flow, climate, etc. be applied in everyday living & being. ?Doing? becomes far more important than ?saying?.Permaculture can be viewed as part of the paradigm shift that all of society is experiencing. Permaculture urges complete cooperation between each & every thing, animate & inanimate. It advises people to live simply & in harmony with each other & with their surroundings. Although it has no concise definition, permaculture is a design for living. A permaculture design provides us with shelter, energy, food, water, income, community, & aesthetic & spiritual fulfillment within a balanced & healthy biological community. Through permaculture & sustainable development we will be better able to increase the quality rather than the quantity of our lives. We can increase the quantity of our lives on our own. All we need is a shopping mall & some money. On the other hand, to increase the quality of our lives we need friendships, good health, a sense of security, a vibrant community life, opportunities to give , to cooperate & to share. Permaculture provides these opportunities by enabling us to substitute intelligence for resources in our economy; to substitute the pursuit of wellbeing for the pursuit of wealth; to develop the wealth of the community rather than individual wealth. Bill MollisonPermaculture really starts with an ethic or earthcare, understood as care of whole systems of earth & species. So we actually devise model systems. Much of the design is drawn from nature. The end result that we aim for, is to produce a system that is ecologically sound & economically profitable. It can get sophisticated or be as simple as you like.1. Permanent Agriculture, the requirement for a permanent culture 2. An ethical philosophy of earthcare & peoplecare supported by the distribution of surplus goods; wealth, labor, attention, information 3. The condition of abundance in nature marked by cooperation, diversity of species, occupation of essential ecological niches, & stability over time, in contrast to the conditions of competition, scarcity, monotony, &^ imminent decay which predominate under hierarchical social conditions. 4. A productive system of human design based on maximal beneficial connections between the elements thereof. 5. A global grassroots movement for self-reliance, community responsibility, decentralization of social, political, economic, & technical authority. 6. The demonstrated & replicated teaching & techniques thereof. 7. Interactive, recombinant ecologies marked by elegance of principle, efficiency of function, appropriateness of form, & astonishing beauty. 8. Maximum satisfaction of needs for all living beings employing the minimum area of built space with a high density & quality of biological information Graham Bell, The Permaculture WayPermaculture is a way of life which shows us how to make the most of our resources by minimizing waste and maximizing potential. Living ecologically doesn't mean giving everything up, but relearning the value of nature & understanding new ways of being wealthy...Conscious design of a lifestyle which is highly productive and does not cause environmental damage.....Meeting our basic needs & still leaving the earth richer than we found it.
