PRI's Permaculture Forum

Don't be shy. We are all here to help, learn, share and encourage you on your permaculture journey. Start a new thread in this forum to introduce yourself. You could also come back to that thread and keep us all updated as you progress... Your introduction page could become your own Permaculture Blog.

How to use these forums, how they work, and "why can't we have ...?" = )

Permaculture principles in action, encompassing plants, veggies, trees, composting etc.

Talk is cheap, so show us what you're doing. Create a thread about your permaculture system and keep it updated with design layouts, pictures, descriptions, harvests, etc. Check out what everyone else is doing in their systems, too.

Debate on politics, energy, conservation, oil, natural resources, GM crops, dodgy science, and social, psychological, spiritual bits & pieces. Discuss, trade links, rant and rave!
