In today’s episode I review the first 6 of David Holmgren’s 12 Principles of Permaculture.  These are from his book: Permaculture: Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability

The 6 principles covered today are:

  • Observe and Interact
  • Catch and Store Energy
  • Obtain a Yield
  • Apply Self-regulation and Accept Feedback
  • Use and Value Renewable Resources and Services
  • Produce No Waste

Also mentioned in today’s episode is Toby Hemenway’s Gaia’s Garden.

  1. I think this is fantastic. I am listening while working in the city and planning a future life in the country. This allows me to get involved and start planning. Keep going, this is great.
