The majority of this site is devoted to information that we find useful, interesting and valuable. While we are obviously interested in technology, we are also interested in the activities of individuals, and groups, who are engaged in alternative ways of thinking and living.

Permaculture is a system for designing sustainable human environments. The word permaculture is a contraction of permanent agriculture or permanent culture. The term was coined by Bill Mollison, an Australian ecologist, who developed this sustainable agriculture system along with David Holmgren in 1974.

This section includes information about permaculture principles, education and certification programs, events and links to other permaculture related sites. It also includes a fairly extensive bibliography on subjects related to permaculture.
