A Permaculture Course for Busy People (171)

pm171_640Bill Wilson and Wayne Weiseman pour their hearts into their permaculture design courses, changing lives as well as landscapes. In a unique format, students do initial course work online and then attend a one week hands-on course.

In this chat along with Sivananda Yoga Farm sponsor Vidya Chaitanya, Wayne discusses principles starting with with observing elements like wind, water, sun and topography in a specific property.

Bill provides alarming information on “peak soil.”  Together they note that permaculture’s goal is to create small, intensive ecologies, a foodweb where everything is exchanging with everything else. Episode 171.

“Eat and Be Eaten, and Share the Bounty.” Watch Bill Wilson in The Heart of Permaculture (Peak Moment episode 157).
