Modeled on natural patterns, ecological design principles, and traditional ecological knowledge, permaculture looks at whole systems, with the understanding that everything is interrelated. It provides a toolbox of solutions such as edible landscaping, rainwater catchment, sheet mulching, native plant and pollinator gardens and no-till agriculture—to apply to the challenges of resource conservation, climate change, food production and more. Join us as we hear from the founders of the Maine Ecological Design School, host of Maine’s Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) program.
