Riassunto

Get a thorough & professional introduction to Permaculture Design in only a few sittings reading The Permaculture Student 1 set. Following the directions and guides, you can start your own permaculture oasis - no matter your climate or growing situation. 

The Permaculture Student 1 condenses the certification requirements of a standard Permaculture Design Certification course into a reference manual that costs a fraction of an in-person or online permaculture design certification course. You can find The Permaculture Student 1 being used by individuals of all ages and teachers in elementary schools, high schools, and homeschools. It is a reference manual rather than a traditional textbook of units and assignments, so it is easier to use in designing. Colorful, scientifically accurate, and engaging illustrations are found throughout the pages. Written by a professional educator with years of classroom experience and curriculum design with a team of professional reviewers and editors.

Recensione

Matt Powers’ work presents the essence of permaculture design in creative and engaging ways for young people. It is a valuable contribution towards a kinder, wiser and more ecologically balanced future for all our children. Bravo!”

               — Maddy Harland, Editor and Co-Founder of Permaculture Magazine 

“When I look at this book I cannot help but fantasize about this book getting in front of millions of kids. What fruit will we see in the generations to come due to these beautiful seeds being planted so early?”

              - Paul Wheaton, Permies.com

"Matt Powers has focused his permaculture energy and enthusiasm on a critical audience, the children of the world, with the permaculture message that there are positive solutions to the world's problems and we can all engage in a meaningful life with an abundant future. This crucial commendable work which has been developed exceptionally well should be whole-heartedly supported.”

             - Geoff Lawton, GeoffLawton.com

"This book fills a gaping niche in permaculture education--it addresses the basics without being

overwhelming, and I will use it to teach my children.”

               - Neal Spackman, TwoVisionsPermaculture.com

“The Permaculture Student - what wonderful thoughts come to mind of children learning and reading about permaculture at a young age. Their young minds as sponges to absorb the knowledge get excited about gardening, growing their own food and about complex environmental issues that are embarrassingly simple to fix. It is an exciting thought that future children could carry the design thinking of permaculture from school through into their adult lives with this book. This book is detailed enough for a good base start on the subject of permaculture yet still simple enough to read for a younger audience. Now all we need to do is to get every school to start using it.”

              - Danial Lawton, permaculturetools.com

“Matt Powers’ book draws heavily on Bill Mollisons’ Manual and as such, the curriculum is reliable and comprehensive. It stands in many ways as a text book of applied science for environmental repair. Teachers can use it to learn permaculture, and smart students will read it avidly. There is room for teachers to add specialised local knowledge. As an equal partner with an environmental, or natural, science curriculum it provides understanding of human impacts, positive and negative, on Earth. It takes students on a journey of earth repair which is a meaningful mission for the young generation who need this knowledge, these skills, and hope.”

              - Rosemary ‘Rowe’ Morrow, Earth User’s Guide To Teaching Permaculture

“I am awed by the concept and delivery. Truly a book for the times”

              -Mike Oehler, The Earth Sheltered Solar Greenhouse Book
