Warm Greetings

from South Jersey



Name's Chris.

I am a young visionary





who is extremely passionate

about Practicing PERMACULTURE





What is permaculture?

Permaculture is Care for the Earth and all of its inhabitants equally and sustainably.







"Permaculture offers a simple, secular framework of ethics that can guide us:

‘Care for the Earth’,

‘Care for the people’, and

‘Care for the Future’, which implies the imperatives to return surpluses into the system, limit consumption and take no more than your fair share."







"Permaculture is a philosophy of working with, rather than against nature; of protracted and thoughtful observation rather than protracted and thoughtless labor; and of looking at plants and animals in all their functions, rather than treating any area as a single product system." - Bill Mollison





Permaculture offers us the perspective & wisdom to cease the vain war on 'weeds' as they, truly, are not our enemies.

They are our allies and we prefer to call them 'dynamic accumulators'







Permaculture strongly advocates the implementation of polyculture, which is basically a party of plants!

Permaculture is both liberating and unifying

January 2014 I left the country for a 90 day backpacking excursion in Costa Rica. The first two weeks were spent attending a Permaculture Design Course led by Scott Pittman and ‎Durgá.

My life was forever changed ^_^

As soon as I returned home in April, I started putting what I learned into practice; Working to establish a sustainable forest garden here in Egg Harbor Township, and to foster the spark for a permaculture revolution within the Garden state (and beyond)







I've got some incredible plans and goals to accomplish with this endeavor including but not limited to:



-Instigating local pro-activity in food production, health & wellness, and care for the environment







-Reaching out to the youth, revealing their thumb's true color and fertilizing their minds for brilliance





-Assisting anyone with permaculture design, from indoor hydroponics to outdoor gardens and abundant food forests



-Inspiring a Harmonious existence amongst I&I







-Spreading the love by sharing seeds & seedlings, nutrient-dense fresh fruits, vital veggies, happy Herbs, far out flowers, and magnificent medicines!













I'm doing this no matter what as it makes my heart sing,





however

I've got many seeds and fruit trees to acquire



which can intially be quite costly. With your assistance I'll be able to get roots in the ground sooner and the sooner we have roots, the sooner we have fruits!



Help me help us



Give thanks

& praises
