At the heart of
permaculture is a set of teachings from nature. These ethics, principles, directives, strategies, approaches, attitudes, design methods and decision making protocols can be applied to any system of design and development. This is part of Nature’s toolkit for creating and maintaining relationships, navigating challenges and opportunities, and creatively addressing the unique conditions of any site or situation. Inspired by Robin Clayfield’s principles game found at
http://www.dynamicgroups.com.au, the source curriculum for this evolving card deck is being gathered along an ongoing planetary
permaculture pilgrimage to learn directly from
Permaculture Pioneers, sharing core insights as a learning game offered freely to the World Community.
