About this product

Product Information

The principle for permaculture is simple: provide back to the earth what we take from it to create a sustainable environment. The three principle aims are: Care for people; care for the earth; and redistribute everything surplus to one's needs. This completely revised and updated edition of Rosemary Morrow's highly successful Earth User's Guide to Permaculture is a straight-forward manual of practical permaculture. Fundamentally, permaculture is design science and in this new edition design is emphasized. This book will be most beneficial if you apply it to the space where you live and work. The same principles apply for becoming more sustainable and living lightly whether you live in a small city apartment with a balcony, in a house with a garden in the suburbs, or on acreage in the country. Included in this new edition are chapters on seed-saving, permaculture at work, integrated pest management, information about domestic as well as rural water usage, a non-destructive approach towards dealing with weeds and wildlife, and designing to withstand a disaster. Earth User's Guide to Permaculture is suitable for beginners as well as experienced permaculture practitioners looking for new ideas in moving towards greater self-reliance and sustainable living.

Great introductory/overview of permaculture
Very detailed and plenty of useful information. Focuses a little too much on convincing the reader to do arts and crafts things like making plans on multiple layers of tracing paper, large plans on butchers' paper to hang on the wall, etc. It does however cover why you should do many of the recommendations (and most importantly, what will happen if you do not) which ends up being very informative. The advice is fairly high level, and covers the concepts and why they are important rather than technical details. For example it is explained why swales are important, as well as the principles on which they work, but does not provide detail on different construction methods. The book is aimed more at those who are new to permaculture. Those very familiar with the concepts and looking for tips and tricks to refine their knowledge probably won't glean a lot from it, but anyone looking to get an overview of what permaculture is will find it very informative.Read full review
