Happy International Permaculture Day!


Today, Sunday May 5th 2013, is International Permaculture Day and what a truly wonderful thing of great beauty and awe that is.  Its theme this year is ‘Grow Local!’

Permaculture is a design system for creating sustainable human environments. It is about designing households and communities that are productive, sustaining and largely self reliant and have minimal impact on the environment.

International Permaculture Day – The first Sunday in May is a day where a range of permaculture events occur across the globe. Open homes, gardens and farms, films, educational workshops, permablitzes and a host of other activities provide an opportunity for the public to see positive permaculture projects in action, to talk personally to the people living it and experience the permaculture movement first hand.
