Permaculture Journey

I recently listened to this audiobook, which provided clear, step-by-step guidance on starting my permaculture project. Despite having no prior experience, I found the advice easy to follow and practical for my region. I feel more confident about creating a sustainable garden that will support my family and the environment.

Great book

If you’re looking for a book on how to create your own sustainable and organic garden this book is for you. It gives you the advice needed on how to grow your own plants without stressing yourself with methods that are not reliable!

Just What I was Looking For!

I've always been an avid gardener and have lately been interested in sustainability. This amazing audiobook goes into that but takes it so much further. It delves deeply into soil composition and how to get a plant- and earth-friendly planting base, how to get water management under control, and (my favorite) integrating animals and livestock into your plan. That’s right: fresh eggs and fried chicken from your backyard! I'm learning how to balance biodiversity with yield, and so much more. The author does a great job laying everything out clearly and helping the listener visualize how to make it all happen. You must listen to this audiobook.

Made Permaculture Feel Simple

This made permaculture feel way more doable than I expected. It didn’t just talk about ideas—it actually gave clear, step-by-step instructions for getting started, even if you don’t have any gardening or farming experience. I loved how it focused on working with whatever land and time you have, instead of needing the "perfect" setup. It really fits with my goal of creating a more self-sufficient, eco-friendly lifestyle without feeling overwhelmed. If you’ve been wanting to turn your land into something sustainable and resilient but didn’t know where to start, this book is a fantastic and practical guide to help you take the first real steps.

Good stuff

With spring on the way I was looking to listen to a book on gardening that could teach me about sustainability, eco-friendly methods and figure out what exactly “permaculture” is. This book stood out to me because I liked that the title highlighted all of these things. Throughout the book there are lots of hands on activities to do, to help you learn these techniques. Many of which are DIY…. Which was something else I was looking for. It’s so fun to learn self reliance through gardening, and this book really helped me understand how to do that. The water harvesting chapter was very helpful. And it also feels good to know the small things I’m doing for my own home (things learned in this book) also supports bigger change world wide.
