What is Permaculture? Designing a Resilient Garden

August 6, 2021 By Stephanie Reyes 1 Comment

permaculture

Do you want a resilient farm that provides your food and crops, a garden that produces varieties of herbs and flowers, and a habitat for wildlife? If so, you can try to make a permaculture ecosystem. It requires much practice, patience, and determination, but it will be worth it once you have that productive permaculture garden.

Key takeaways:

  • Permaculture is the design and maintenance of productive ecosystems with the diversity, stability, and resilience of natural ecosystems.”
  • Permaculture’s prime directive is to do your best to take care of your own needs. Taking care of your own needs doesn’t mean you have to become completely self-reliant. Instead, you have to do your best to make the highest use of resources available to you.
  • The permaculture design uses three ethics:
    • Care for earth
    • Care for people
    • Reinvest surplus
  • There are six permaculture principles that can help build a more productive ecosystem:
    • Observe and interact with the land.
    • Connect and integrate the pieces.
    • Catch and store energy and materials.
    • Each component must perform multiple functions.
    • Make the smallest change for the greatest effect. Look for leverage points where the least amount of work can accomplish the most difference.
    • Use small-scale, intensive systems.
  • To get started on permaculture, you must know that it takes a lot of practice. It’s okay to experiment and fail. From all your experiments, collect data so you can learn how to make an even more productive and successful system.
  • For more permaculture resources, you can read more articles, consult with a certified permaculture designer, or sign up for a permaculture mini-course.

    Hi, Eric here with a quick thought about your website igarden101.com…

    I’m on the internet a lot and I look at a lot of business websites.

    Like yours, many of them have great content.

    But all too often, they come up short when it comes to engaging and connecting with anyone who visits.

    I get it – it’s hard. Studies show 7 out of 10 people who land on a site, abandon it in moments without leaving even a trace. You got the eyeball, but nothing else.

    Here’s a solution for you…

    Talk With Web Visitor is a software widget that’s works on your site, ready to capture any visitor’s Name, Email address and Phone Number. You’ll know immediately they’re interested and you can call them directly to talk with them literally while they’re still on the web looking at your site.

    CLICK HERE https://talkwithwebvisitors.com to try out a Live Demo with Talk With Web Visitor now to see exactly how it works.

    It could be huge for your business – and because you’ve got that phone number, with our new SMS Text With Lead feature, you can automatically start a text (SMS) conversation – immediately… and contacting someone in that 5 minute window is 100 times more powerful than reaching out 30 minutes or more later.

    Plus, with text messaging you can follow up later with new offers, content links, even just follow up notes to keep the conversation going.

    Everything I’ve just described is extremely simple to implement, cost-effective, and profitable.

    CLICK HERE https://talkwithwebvisitors.com to discover what Talk With Web Visitor can do for your business.

    You could be converting up to 100X more eyeballs into leads today!

    Eric
