Infos

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 The movement toward sustainable landscaping is gaining momentum. Gardeners are planting more ecologically sound gardens that include both people and wildlife. These gardens are grounded in new concepts such as permaculture and ecological design, but they draw from traditional techniques and designs.#2 Permaculture designer Larry Santoyo of Earthflow Design Works integrated the greater watershed landscape into his urban Santa Barbara, California, garden. The garden was reoriented into terrace beds and pathways that flow along the contour lines to capture precious runoff in the arid climate.#3 Permaculture is a set of principles and practices that are used to design sustainable human settlements. It was invented by two Australians, Bill Mollison and David Holmgren, in the 1970s.#4 Permaculture is a design approach that connects different disciplines, strategies, and techniques. It is not a discipline in itself, but rather a set of principles based on connecting those disciplines. It aims to design ecologically sound, economically prosperous human communities.
