Permaculture Principles in Everyday Life

Ecology Landscaping permaculture

Permaculture offers a framework for sustainable living that integrates land, resources, and people.

On the most basic level, permaculture could be implemented by simple companion planting in your garden. Companion planting means adjacent plants are arranged in such a way to bring additional benefit from each others proximity. Permaculture could also be designing water catchment systems for gravity fed irrigation systems. Permaculture teaches us to observe our local ecological system and mimic those natural systems in form and function. Even apartment dwellers can apply permaculture principles by practicing vertical gardening or using worm composting from kitchen scraps to get into the habits and empower this mindset and the only limit is the capacity of this earth for those looking to grow and advance within this lifestyle creating a global web of efficiency and abundance.
