Creating your Permaculture Heaven: Design and Principles for Creating Your Own Backyard Food Forest (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781915217004)

As famous permaculturist Bill Mollison said "Though the problems of the world are increasingly complex, the solutions remain embarrassingly simple."

And permaculture goes a long way towards this; it's a way to use natural systems and processes to help you get the most from your garden in the most efficient way possible with nature doing most of the watering, fertilizing and pest control for you.

Whether you're an apartment dweller or the proud owner of a large piece of land, permaculture principles can help you get the best out of your garden.

Permaculture isn't just about personal satisfaction, though. It's also about helping to save the planet. Even if you're only able to grow your own tomatoes and strawberries this summer, you're cutting your carbon footprint - no transport, no logistics, no fertilizers or pesticides, just your own 100% organic fruit and vegetables.

Learning about permaculture and incorporating it into your life will help you realize your dream of living a sustainable life and doing that extra bit to help the future of the planet.
