"Accessible, informative and packed with practical advice, The Permaculture Way is the environmentally efficient way. This is an indispensable guide for those willing to move away from the consumerist lifestyle, and to live by more enduring values. Permaculture is not about getting away from it all - it's about taking control of our lives, our individual needs, and our common future."--BOOK JACKET.
