The #Permaculture Flower! and it continues out from here...
When I started with #Permaculture, I became quite popular with chicks...

#Permaculture principles โ€” not just for growing food.

Observe and interact: Engage with nature - design solutions that suit our particular situation.

Catch and store energy: Collect resources at peak abundance, use in times of need.

Obtain a yield: Get truly useful rewards as part of the work that you are doing.

Apply self-regulation and accept feedback: Systems must function well long-term.

Use and value renewable resources and services: Make good use of nature's abundance.

Produce no waste: Valuing & use of all resources that are available to us.

Design from patterns to details: Observe patterns in nature & society - these are the backbone of our designs, with details filled in as we go.

Integrate rather than segregate: By putting the right things in the right place, relationships develop between those things and they work together to support each other.

Use small and slow solutions: Small and slow systems are easier to maintain than big ones, making better use of local resources and producing more sustainable outcomes.

Use and value diversity: Diversity reduces vulnerability to a variety of threats and takes advantage of the unique nature of the environment in which it resides.

Use edges and value the marginal: The interface between things is where the most interesting events take place. These are often the most valuable, diverse and productive elements in the system.

Creatively use and respond to change: Have a positive impact on inevitable change by carefully observing, and then intervening at the right time

Nigel Palmerโ€™s work on regenerative gardening & homemade soil amendments is top notch. I have reached out to him for an interview, to teach folks how to feed their soil without commercial fertilizers.

In the meantime, check out his video on extracting minerals from egg shells, or find his book (buy it NOT on amazon if possible!):

The Regenerative Grower's Guide to Garden Amendments: Using Locally Sourced Materials to Make Mineral and Biological Extracts and Ferment

Imagine every home having a nice garden and backyard flock of chickens or quail, an elegant closed system with soil in top condition, fed composted manure and minerals from egg shellsโ€ฆ

[ Open question: who else would you recommend interviewing? ]

Zone 00: the forgotten zone of permaculture

The one question I hear most: โ€œWhat can I do without land?โ€ Hereโ€™s my answer: Zone 00.

Zone 00 is permaculture principles applied to consciousness. No land required, no permits needed, and no confiscation possible... just your sovereign awareness.

Start where you are. Observe. Integrate. Everything else flows from there.

Watch my talk from The People's Reset 2026 when you're ready:
