P ICT URE : @ M ALL IVAN
SO, YOU’VE heard people talk about permaculture, but were too embarrassed to ask what it is or you figured it was too complex a concept to adopt in your busy life. Put simply it is the development of agricultural ecosystems intended to be sustainable, self sufficient, eco-friendly and ethical. Permaculture is, indeed, a way of life that is holistic in its approach; where people live in harmony with nature with a long-term outlook aimed at reducing waste, making good use of what nature provides, and throwing in a bit of tech, just to keep it interesting.
