| Course Description: |
This Permaculture Design course explains 12 principles for making decisions in sustainable living and land use with practical work examples.
The 12 Design Principles are:
- Observe and Interact. 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder'
- Catch and Store Energy. 'Make hay while the sun shines'
- Produce a Yield. 'You can't work on an empty stomach'
- Apply Self Regulation and Accept Feedback. 'The sins of the father are visited on the children unto the seventh generation
- Use and Value Renewable Resources and Services. 'Let nature take its course'
- Produce No Waste. 'A stitch in time saves nine and need not want not'
- Design from Patterns to Detail. 'Can't see the forest for the trees'
- Intergrate rather than Segregate. 'Many hands make light work'
- Use Small and Slow Solution. 'The bigger they are the harder they fall and Solw and steady wins the race'
- Use and Value Diversity. 'Don't put all your eggs in one basket'
- Use Edges and Value the Marginal. 'Don't think you are on the right path just because it's a well beaten track'
- Creatively Respond and Adapt to Change. 'Vision is not seeing things how they are but how they will be'
