Permaculture for beginners : the ultimate guide to natural farming and sustainable living / Nicole Faires.

Faires, Nicole, (author.). Faires, Nicole. Ultimate guide to permaculture. (Added Author).

Summary:

"Permaculture is an important but often misunderstood method of growing food and building homes in a manner that works with nature, rather than against it, to create beautiful, healthy, and useful gardens. Blending ecology, organic agriculture, green home design, appropriate technology, and biology can be confusing and overwhelming, but Permaculture for Beginners simplifies this vast field for practical application. This is a hands-on guide, taking the beginner through each step of the design process, so that anyone can apply permaculture principles to their own life. While the principles are simple, the in-depth topics cover every aspect of permaculture." -- Back cover.
