Each month in 2013 I reviewed a principle from David Holmgren's Permaculture: Principles and Pathways beyond Sustainability
. If you missed them, here they all are:
Reading the book, one chapter at a time, over a whole year, really made me think about each principle. Not just the practical aspects, but the wider social implications. I had some great discussions with readers along the way, and I think that really deepened my understanding of permaculture.
Now I want to turn it over to you readers. I think everyone has their own version of permaculture and their own thoughts to add, so I'm hoping to get some volunteers to write some guests posts about permaculture. Most of all, I want you to make your posts accessible to new permies, tell them what permaculture means to you, how you discovered it, and how you use it every day. Tell them how they can learn more about permaculture too.
If you're interested, please send me an email on eight.acres.liz at gmail dot com and I'll send you some more details. I'm going to publish whatever you send me, so don't be shy, let's share the permaculture knowledge with everyone!
