It is our experience that by the time a person has begun to look into permaculture, at what it is, and at what its possibilities are, that person has already gone through some measure of meaningful transition in their own life.
The culture we are surrounded by does not reward someone for looking into alternatives to the status quo. You are probably someone who is willing to look outside the box, ask the more difficult questions, and are willing to look at the unpopular solutions. In your family or circles, you are likely to be the ‘odd one’, the ‘black sheep’, the ‘tree hugger’.
If this is the case… Welcome... We thank you for being who you are.

"The significant problems we face today
cannot be solved
at the same level of thinking we were at
when we created them."
Albert Einstein
"The universe is sacred. You cannot improve it.
If you try to change it, you will ruin it.
If you try to hold it, you will lose it." --Lao-tzu
“For what is the use of a house,
If you haven’t got a tolerable planet to put it on?”
Henry David Thoreau
“Let ours be a time remembered
for the awakening of a new reverence for life,
the firm resolve to achieve sustainability,
the quickening of the struggle for justice and peace,
and the joyful celebration of life.
