Permaculture Landscape Design
Permaculture design is much more than a buzzword. Functional ecosystems provide healthy food and habitat for humans and wildlife, improve resilience in the face of resource insecurity and climate change, and offer a surplus of benefit to the surrounding community.
That is the aim of a certified permaculture designer: to work collaboratively with you, the conscientious property owner, and establish a stepwise plan to see this practical vision come to fruition.
Permaculture began as a movement for deeper sustainability in Australia, and has since spread around the globe through everyday people seeking to create more harmony and balance in our outdoor spaces, and daily life.
Permaculture Designers Observe, then Respond
The most important thing to remember is that whether we’re creating a backyard permaculture design, permaculture orchard layout, or other more extensive permaculture plans, that we respond appropriately to the unique conditions, activities and goals at your property.
Cool trends such as swales, hugel beds, and spiral herb gardens can be an exciting part of permaculture garden design, but are not always the most effective or productive solution for a specific site.
Community Resilience and Self Sufficiency
When we create a landscape that truly meets the lofty ideals of regenerative, sustainable systems, is low maintenance, and looks beautiful, a different kind of lifestyle is achieved. Having an oasis to come home to in the city or the country is what many of us crave these days - the chance to truly co-create with and enjoy nature every day.
Permaculture designers are here to collaborate with you to create a diverse, climate-resilient yard that provides nourishment for you, beneficial wildlife, and the surrounding community. From permaculture orchard design to backyard chickens and more, I’m here to listen and work with you to clarify the vision and plan for the future.
