Description:

In this episode of Sense-Making in a Changing World, I am excited to share with you my conversation with one-acre permaculture farmer, Brett Cooper from Limestone Permaculture in Stroud, NSW.

Brett and his family moved from the city and busy full time jobs and health issues to this country property. They now source their entire income from their beautifully designed small-scale permaculture farm with 11 sources of income - including food, courses, tours, accommodation, consulting and very importantly - the gift economy.

Listen in & be inspired by the transition story Brett shares. It is such a wonderful story - motivating, uplifting and enabling!

FIND OUT MORE ABOUT PERMACULTURE
Join me to learn more about permaculture. Come and explore the many free permaculture resources my Our Permaculture Life Youtube channel  and blog .

The world needs more permaculture teachers everywhere sharing local ways of one planet living, regenerative design and growing, and working toward a climate-safe future. Being or becoming a local grower - on a farm or in your backyard - is critically important, as is supporting local regenerative growers to supplement your food needs. Our current industrial food systems is responsible for a huge proportion of our carbon emissions, land degradation, soil erosion, water pollution, habitat loss, species extinction and human ailments.

I invite you to join the Permaculture Educators Program with others from 6 continents to explore ways of being the change and creating the conditions for transition. Our program is a comprehensive online course that includes the Permaculture Design Certificate and online Permaculture Teacher Certificate. We are a friendly and encouraging global learning community.

We support free permaculture education for people in refugee camps. Help us by donating to Ethos Foundation our registered charity so we can continue to help them offer free permaculture education. Hundreds of refugees have graduated in this past year.

We also invite young people to join the Global Permayouth Festivals each month, workshops and arts competitions too.

If your main interest is getting a thriving food garden set up,  take a look at this online course: The Incredible Edible Garden.

With love,
