The Permaculture Signal

Hopi Tutskwa translates from the Hopi language to the life ways and knowledge of the land and soil.

Permaculture provides a pathway to transform the world. To realize its potential, we have to use design as a transformative process.

How do we learn to see patterns instead of “things”? Joel Glanzberg shares his perspective and process.

By putting what he learned into practice, a student takes permaculture to his neighborhood, inspiring others to follow suit.

Permaculturist Brad Lancaster’s books and instruction have been a groundswell for my life, shaping a focus area of my work.

My certainty grows that community-based efforts in places like North St. Louis have a lot to teach about permaculture. 

When I encountered permaculture, what really drew me was the statement of ethics and the principles of nature applied to society.

After permaculture, I was amazed that I hadn’t been presented with a statement of ethics in any other discipline I had studied.
