About this ebook
Let's assume that you are already a gardener or someone who wants to begin gardening. Honestly, above we've shown you the first reaction from folks who hear the definition of Permaculture for the first time.
We aren't sure why it takes such a complex description to describe something very simple. We'll discuss a bit more of this in a moment but let's agree for now that in the simplest of terminology, Permaculture is working WITH Mother Nature.
Isn't this just another form of organic gardening? Yes and no. It's more than that. Now, before you get hung up on all that "technical stuff" just ask yourself a few questions.
Do I want to garden without responsibility?
Do I want to add harsh chemicals to my garden?
Do I want to ignore the value of the resources we use?
Do I want to waste or spoil those resources?
If you answered with a resounding "NO" then you're in the right place at the right time.

About the Author
Joe Boxall loves his garden.
Joe said, I’ve always had a garden and tried a lot of different ideas.
I want to give my readers a simple guide to the Permaculture system which has many benefits for people that care about their gardens and the food they produce from them.
Most of the information about using and benefitting from Permaculture techniques are focused on large scale agriculture and many are fairly technical.
My book will get you started. You can start small and that may be enough for some readers.
And, I’ll point you to where you can get more advanced information and support when you need it.
"I will give you the basics about making your garden more productive and meanwhile you can also reduce the amount of time and money you spend on
