Learning about Permaculture, and then trying some simple things for my urban scenario these last five years has made me feel gloriously more connected to my everyday life. I could go on and on about each of these items I have felt a difference in: more connected to natural cycles, connected to my ecosystem, to many kinds of traditional knowledge, to myself, to local farmers and local businesses, and of course, to the optimistic and ingenious folks around here! "Connection" has overall been the main theme of my explorations into Permaculture so far, and I am so grateful that I found its trail.

I wanted to get a list started of the many ways that embracing Permaculture, at any scale, in any place, can fill a void--connect the dots--bring out the best in a situation--because I can't be the only one who feels so much more goodness in life from taking this path.

From my viewpoint, living in Permaculture can provide:
  • connection
  • knowledge
  • hope
  • friends
  • beauty
  • personal growth
  • financial savings
  • peace
  • gifts to share
  • mindset shifts
  • joy


  • I just wish I could give everyone in the world Permaculture somehow!
