Introducing permaculture as a positive, proactive way to create food security, water security, and energy security, build community, and more – while you reduce drought and flooding, restore biodiversity, and sequester carbon. It’s a peaceful, practical way to rebel against extinction, with boots-on-the-ground strategies to heal the Earth, one plot of land at a time!
