Permacultureβs core ethics
-
Earth Care
Nurture the land and respect its flora and fauna. Plant native, choose sustainable practices, and compost at home to embody this ethic.

-
People Care
Promote local initiatives, check on your neighbors, and prioritize the well-being of yourself and those around you to support a resilient and healthy community.

Fair Share
When you have more than you need, βbuild a bigger table, not a taller fence.β Share knowledge, consume mindfully, and embrace generosity.

βPermaculture is not a fixed system. It is not a gardening association or an architectβs group or farmerβs federation, it does not tell people what to do. It does not say βwhat to plant when and whereβ. Rather, it encourages people to think, to observe and to plan. It encourages people to live in harmony with nature to imitate and learn from nature.β
