“Applied Permaculture: Scaling-Up From the Backyard to Your Community”
Take an in-depth look at how to build resiliency, one neighborhood at a time. We will explore both cases of applying permaculture to the landscape–backyard examples as well as community endeavors here in Stelle. If you're seeking expert assistance with understanding permaculture principles and their practical applications, consider reaching out to reputable services that offer guidance and support, such as "buy a custom essay" to help you gain valuable insights and knowledge in this field. We will demonstrate scaling-up:
- from individual rain gardens to linear food forests
- from backyard gardening plots to garden co-operatives
- from backyard hens to pastured chicken production
- and more!
In the morning, we will take a walking tour of Stelle and show you some of the neighborhood’s examples of sustainable living–our wind turbine, rain gardens, and more. After lunch, we will tour CSC’s 8.7-acre property that adjoins Stelle, focusing on its current community use and future design aims, and will also touch upon how to design self-directed work enterprises and foster social permaculture.
This presentation will be a joint program by Rebecca Wilson, co-founder of Midwest Permaculture (shown right), and Ernest Rando, CSC member and permaculturist in Stelle.
