I know very little about permaculture. What I assumed was it was a farming method designed for scalable application. Elsewhere I heard these practices referred to in a gardening context, and I was quite surprised.
I checked Wikipedia, and the summary was a little too airy for me. I also browsed some aspects of the entry and came back to my original conclusion: this is all for someone who's got an acre or two.
Does permaculture have any revelance for anyone with, say, a community garden or backyard environment available?
