A collaboration between artist Frances Whitfield and ecological grower Poppy Okotcha, this calendar is a beginners guide to sustainable gardening with Permaculture design.

Permaculture is an ethics based design framework, rooted in a vision of humans living comfortably and harmoniously with life on Earth. The discipline was formulated in the 1970’s and is based on the idea that truly sustainable gardeners are inspired by nature! Inside you will find an introduction to permaculture, a further reading list, and an exploration of the 12 principles that guide permaculture design as well as month by month seasonal gardening tasks.

Each month contains:
One of the twelve permaculture principles explained
Some guidance on what to get up to in the garden
A list of some plants in season to forage and harvest.

Featuring a foreword by Permaculture Association’s CEO Andy Goldring

Note: This calendar contains seasonal tasks relevant to the UK.
