Earth Restorer's Guide to Permaculture

Beschreibung

With decades of hands-on teaching experience in a wide range of settings and circumstances, Rosemary Morrow brings a lifetime of global knowledge to this completely revised and updated edition of her classic text. The newly-titled Earth Restorer's Guide to Permaculture covers essentials such as: soils ¿ water ¿ microclimates ¿ trees ¿ seeds ¿ design ¿ pattern literacy ¿ pests ¿ weeds. It also turns our minds to the growing global challenges to Earth's air, soil and water, and shows us that by working in our local patch we can help restore our global ecosystems. New in this edition are discussions on air quality, and chapters on marine permaculture, 'crowded margins' (including refugee camps), emerging economic models, livelihoods, and patterns in nature and their design applications. As always, Rob Allsop's warm and accessible illustrations complement and illuminate Rosemary Morrow's practical approach. Earth Restorer's Guide to Permaculture is a call to action. It entreats and empowers us to launch a new restorative relationship with all life. The best gift to our world is a planet restored.

Autor

Born in Perth, Rosemary Morrow (Rowe) was claimed early by the Earth; plants, animals, stones, weather. Some years in the Kimberleys as a young girl confirmed it. Later she trained in agriculture science with which she was very disappointed, then moved to France where she lived in the L'Arche community. Later at Jordans Village in England she realised she would become a Quaker. Back in Australia in the 1980s Rowe's Permaculture Design Course provided the basis for a concern for Earth restoration. She considers permaculture to be 'sacred knowledge' to be carried and shared with others. Since then, when asked, she has travelled to teach the PDC to others who, due to circumstances, could not access it any other way. This took her to immediate post-war Vietnam as well as Cambodia, Uganda, Ethiopia and other countries. Rowe's present concern is to make teaching sustainable and encourage others to succeed her as teachers.
