Hello and Welcome Back to The Earth Sea Love Podcast.
Dr Sheree Mack, your host here.
I'll not lie. The promise I made at the beginning of 2023 of dropping at least one episode each month of the podcast was in the balance this month. July. A time I love to tie up loose end, retreat and rest. Call it the teacher in me, as I'm someone from time who loves to take the summer holidays off the clock. This year is no exception, except that I've just moved house and needed a rest more than ever.
So this episode has been on the back burner. Knowing it's something I wanted to do, and promised to do, didn't help the process of getting it done.
But finally it is here. I needed to get out of my head and just get into my body to produce it. I needed to get out of my way and just talk from the heart about my current learning. Permaculture Design.
So I started a Permaculture Design Certificate course with Liz Postlethwaite this spring. It will take me a year to complete and along the way, I'm learning a lot of new things about regenerative systems and how to apply this to my practice and creative projects.
I am just about getting into it now, after a slow, tentative, reluctant start as I discuss within this episode. I've been experiencing a fair about of conflict and tension about Permaculture and Permaculture Design basically because of its roots and their acknowledgment.
So within this beginning episode of a mini series around Permaculture Design, I discuss:
* the difference between Permaculture and Permaculture Design
* the purpose of Permaculture Design
* the ethics and principles of Permaculture Design
* the creation of the terms and concepts of Permaculture Design
* the indigenous roots of Permaculture Design
* the roots of my conflict and tensions with Permaculture Design
* what to expect in the forthcoming episodes of the mini-series.
Keep an eye out on The Earth Sea Love Zine over on substack for more thinking and discussions around the issues raised and practices learnt throughout this mini series as well as the Permaculture Design Certificate course as a whole.
