What is permaculture?


Infinite growth, reckless consumption, eroding soils, concreting over precious habitats. Mental ill health, loneliness, social deprivation. The symptoms are plain for us to see. The solutions? They are also hiding in plain sight.

Permaculture teaches a collaboration with land and nature. Permaculture Association’s Learning And Demonstration (LAND) network has over 140 projects and sites in England, Scotland and Wales, showing permaculture in action.
