Is Permaculture the answer to sustainability… to our permanence as a society… as a world? Is it the answer to world hunger? To our climate crisis? Could it really be that simple? I have been asking myself these questions and I recently discovered that it just may be.
This discovery gives me hope and excitement but also gives cause for great concern as to why so many don’t know about this?!? Why, when we have information at our fingertips and immediate access to the latest… Why doesn’t the world know about something that is so important and so impactful as our very existence as a whole depends on it…. Why?
Well, It is time to share before it is too late! I believe I have been called, my purpose! My Passion!
You may be asking, what is Permaculture anyway? Some say it means Permanent-Culture or Permanent-Agriculture. These are great ways to describe it but I would like to expand a little further so you have a better understanding.
To put it in simple terms, permaculture is an approach to land design and management using ethical practices and ethical principles that promote a healthy living soil which generates an abundance of bio diversity and eco systems that support life of all sorts including humans, with all living in balance and harmony. Almost sounds too good to be true, kind of like the Garden of Eden…
I truly believe that the Garden of Eden is within our grasp by adopting these 12 permaculture principles in our daily lives and getting back in touch. Nature and community is a wonderful start. Especially in these uncertain times…
I have a few links as “Must watch” videos of information that could possibly open up your mind and your heart to a better way of living. A more full and complete way to live in harmony with yourself and your surroundings… A life of abundance! If you are anything like me, then you may start to ask yourself questions.
Questions like… why do I have to depend on others for my food? Why do we fill our valuable space with plants that serve no purpose other than are attractive at most, instead of providing us food, medicinal herbs, sanctuary for birds and other wildlife, giving sustenance and refuge to the pollinators, and more… Why have we been taught to be so far removed from nature and living a sustainable life? Why have we given our power away you may be asking…. Why?
It is time to make a change, in your life and in the world. We can do it together! Check out the links below for some inspiration. Enjoy!
