Permaculture is the harmonious integration of landscape and people. Bound by the ethics of earth care, people care and the reinvestment of surplus providing food, energy, shelter, and other material and non-material needs in a sustainable way.
The Edmonton Permaculture Guild supports a growing community of individuals and groups who are interested in developing and nurturing sustainability, local food initiatives, and resilient communities by producing educational and social events, enabling these projects to come to fruition and flourish; providing additional opportunities for the exchange of ideas and information.
