Welcome Friends!
Ecological Food Forest is an educational site for people to learn more about permaculture. Our goal is to teach people how we can use these strategies to solve the ever-growing list of global issues we face. Whether you are a beginner, expert, or someone looking for answers about how to nurture the earth into a more prolific and productive place for future generations, Ecological Food Forest can help guide you. We try our best to simplify the permaculture principles and concepts for you into an easy-to-follow and simple to implement approach. Let us be CLEAR when we say that, you DO NOT need a lot of land, fancy tools, or expensive equipment. You DO NOT need to be a professional landscape designer or even have a green thumb for that matter. What you DO need to start practicing permaculture is:
1. Enthusiasm to be part of the modern-day PERMACULTURE REVOLUTION
2. Desire to LIVE in HARMONY with NATURE
3. Ability to OBSERVE NATURE and apply the basic concepts of permaculture based on your observations.
Join our circle of friends and grow with us on our journey of sharing how permaculture can change the world for the better good. When you join, you will be the first to know of all the valuable and informative content that we release.
We occasionally host free book giveaways and send other free informational guides and resources related to permaculture.
