Description

Fences serve many roles on a homestead—keeping livestock in, keeping predators out, marking property boundaries, and providing privacy. However, in permaculture, we strive to make everything serve multiple functions. Well-designed permaculture fences can do much more than just create a barrier; it can become an integral part of the ecosystem, enhancing biodiversity, microclimates, and soil health.


In this podcast episode, we’ll explore both traditional and alternative fencing methods through the lens of permaculture. We'll examine their ability to create edge, support wildlife, conserve resources, and integrate with natural systems.
