Description

In this first episode, we explore the foundational ideas from Permaculture: A Designers’ Manual by Bill Mollison. The conversation takes a close look at permaculture’s emphasis on ethics—care of the Earth, care of people, and setting limits—and shows how these principles can guide us toward more sustainable ways of living. You’ll hear an overview of how the text weaves together design philosophy, ecological insights, and practical applications to reshape our relationship with the environment.

From capturing rainwater to creating localized food systems, this episode shines a light on how everyday actions can form the building blocks of lasting change. Join us for a clear and engaging breakdown of what “permanent agriculture” entails and why it matters. If you’re looking for an in-depth look at how simple strategies can lead to healthier communities and ecosystems, this is a great place to start.
