www.gardenvillagepermaculture.com.au In Australia we are experiencing difficult times. The cost of living is rising, we are disconnected from our families and communities, we have limited access to fresh and organic food, we have alarming childhood obesity statistics, and we face drought and extreme weather conditions that wipe out entire food supplies. We are also constantly aware of the worldwid

It teaches you to make the most of free resources such as the sun to grow your own organic and nutritious food and to heat your home. Permaculture is a design system that works with nature, rather than against it, requiring less work to produce real results.
