Learn about the basic concepts of permaculture from Mary Bishop, certified permaculture design consultant from Oregon State University.
This introductory-level permaculture presentation will give you ideas on how to grow food in your yard without the use of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, and herbicides. You'll learn about the ethics of permaculture and principles of permaculture as well as how planting design, water harvesting, and soil-building methods improve growing conditions. Along with the familiar herbs, flowers, and vegetables, there will be an emphasis on native species of plants to both encourage beneficial insects and provide food for your household.
