The new completely revised and updated
edition of Rosemary's highly successful book.
Permaculture is a way to repair and restore the Earth by analysis
and design and can be practised by everyone. In this fully revised and
expanded edition, Rosemary Morrow brings us up to date with our need to
measure, monitor and reduce our ecological footprint. Permaculture is
both a philosophy and a practical approach to land use based on three
tenets: care for people, care for the Earth, and redistributing
everything surplus to one's needs.
Earth User's Guide to Permaculture is a manual of practical
permaculture, a step–by–guide on how to assess and then design a
permaculture garden of any size; whether it is a small inner–city
balcony, a garden in the suburbs, or a large rural property. Included
are extra chapters on seedsaving, permaculture at work, integrated pest
management, more about domestic as well as rural water usage, a
non–destructive approach towards weeds and wildlife, and designing to
withstand a disaster.
Rob Allsop's simple and clear illustrations continue to support
Rosemary's writing with their warmth and accessibility.
