In gardens it's not just plants and insects and microbes that grow. People grow too, and the best bit is that they don't realise it's happening. It just happens.

We're all nurtured by mother nature's cycles and seasons.

Every creature and plant is part of her (mother nature's) amazing interconnected garden... The whole world is a garden.

Get growing. Back yourself and make mistakes. It's your mistakes and observations that are your greatest tutors.

National Permaculture Day is a chance to share thoughts, visions and lots of common sense ways that we can all make a positive difference to the world we live in. Its all about combining age old truths and skills with new and innovative thinking and technologies….people, plants and landscapes growing together, designing and nurturing a healthy community along the way.

In gardens it's not just plants and insects and microbes that grow. People grow too, and the best bit is that they don't realise it's happening. It just happens.

It's not just about facts, information and technical know how... Gardens are about time, observation and intuition.
