We can demonstrate and develop that these tried and tested principles work, bringing us back to a unity with nature and community. In this collaborative book, Wilf Richards, plus a collective of experienced permaculture teachers and elders from across Britain and beyond, explore David Holmgren's twelve permaculture principles, retrieve many of Bill Mollison's original ones, and include new principles from permaculture designers worldwide. Together they share a history of each principle, its evolution, and tell stories of how they are now being used, understood and applied. Permaculture principles have evolved from Indigenous knowledge, observations of nature's cycles, and the living, teaching and practice of permaculture over the past 50 years in many different climates and cultures.

Full of stories and case studies, The Power of Permaculture Principles will enable you to enrich your knowledge of permacult
