Description

Permaculture Designers Manual by Bill Mollison


In today’s show, I go into the subject of permaculture and what permaculture has to do with fermentation. I’m very passionate about permaculture and I think it’s a system that should be included in every child’s education since it’s a system  that helps you solve problems. It’s basically a troubleshooting methodology that teaches you to observe and interact.


To define it, permaculture is a design science that provides for all the needs of humanity, while at the same time benefits the environment.
