Nice article! Permaculture is the future. I started to read about permaculture around a year ago. When i worked in my vegetable garden this spring and i thought about what i had learned about permaculture, i realized that a lot of those things i did anyway already, just by common sense and intuition. It's a funny thing, but when i am in my garden at work all alone, i'm in a meditation-like condition and i realize that there is earth and plant talking somehow to me and suddenly i know exactly what to plant where, when and how.
