Join library communities around Vermont for this introduction to permaculture with UVM Ext. Master Gardener Karen Tuininga.
Interested in improving your grounds or gardens, growing food, or learning about ecology and design? Join us for this casual and informative talk led by Karen Tuininga, who will provide an introduction and overview of permaculture principles and history, techniques for applying permaculture approaches to your daily life, and a discussion of using permaculture in your gardens and landscapes.
Permaculture is a practical and creative design system that you can apply to everything from your garden to your calendar. Based on age-old common-sense holistic approaches (think catching rainwater off the roof for later use), permaculture emphasizes multiple production benefits with minimal energy use or waste. The result is resource use which is sustainable, resilient and responsible … characteristics much needed in today's world. These design principles work at any scale small or large, in home or commercial gardens, and in every facet of our lives and organizations.
