🌳 What if our agricultural system, which currently focuses on annual crops, functioned like a perennial forest? Today I am extremely happy to talk about a concept that integrates the care of our planet, the care of people and a just and fair share for all humans and non humans. This concept rethinks our land use and agricultural system based on ecological principles in a world with little to no fossil fuels. This concept is of course Permaculture.

👨‍🌾 To explore this concept I have the great pleasure to welcome none other than its co-founder David Holmgren. David is an environmental designer, activist, futurist and author.

1️⃣ What is permaculture ?
