Intro to Permaculture

From TreeHouse –

Permaculture (Permanent Agriculture) is an ideology that emphasizes harmony between People and the Earth. Through guided concepts and techniques, permaculture offers ways to actualize change to become more sustainable in your own home and in your community, and live in harmony with our environment. Permaculture in practice is the act of meeting our needs without trashing the planet or harming other people (or other species).

This class will be the first in a two part series on Permaculture, presented by the Austin Permaculture Guild. This intro will provide an overview of the concepts of Permaculture, and a follow up class on 4/18/17 will delve into gardening using Permaculture guidelines.

This free class will be taught by Taelor Monroe and Chloe Buzzotta from the Austin Permaculture Guild (APG). The APG is an organization that serves the greater central Texas community by connecting people to courses, events, resources, and professionals in the Permaculture field.
