Summary

As the famous permaculturist Bill Mollison said, “Though the problems of the world are increasingly complex, the solutions remain embarrassingly simple.” And permaculture goes a long way toward this; it's a way to use natural systems and processes to help you get the most from your garden in the most efficient way possible, with nature doing most of the watering, fertilizing, and pest control for you.

In Creating Your Permaculture Heaven, you’ll learn:

  • The main principles of permaculture
  • How to make use of every bit of water that is given to us
  • Why humans wouldn’t exist without soil and how we can provide it with the nutrients it needs to grow all our delicious fruit and vegetables
  • How to keep those pesty slugs away from your lovely green vegetables
  • Which plants work well together and which hate the sight of each other
  • How you can realize your dream of having your own food forest with your favorite fruits and veggies
  • How you can reap even more rewards from your garden to give you a little extra pocket money
  • How to attract bees to your garden or even make honey

And much more!

As a free bonus, there are some fun exercises for you at the end of each chapter to help you put what you have learned into practice!

You may think you don’t have the time or the money to start a big permaculture project. But permaculture doesn’t need to be overwhelming. You can start as small as you like, and you can move at a pace that suits you. Don’t feel you have to learn everything in one go and rush out to transform a whole wilderness in a year. Just deal in manageable chunks, and you’ll do just fine.

Even if all you have done is tend to a few tomato plants on your window ledge, you can become an expert gardener; all it takes is a little time, patience, and practice. And remember, we have all made mistakes along the way.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Excellent permaculture information

This was a great introduction to permaculture and very inspiring. It was, however, let down by robotic narration with very strange intonation. It was a bit like those AI narrated YouTube voiceovers.
Also strange was the reassurance early on in the book that this was written from a UK perspective, followed by all chapters thereafter pandering to an American audience.
