Additionally, you'll explore the permaculture zones and how to create a zone map that works for your unique space. By searching for and finding existing patterns in nature, you can use them to your advantage while always keeping Bill Mollison’s advice in mind: work with the land, not against it.

The book features beautiful hand-drawn illustrations and takes a step-by-step approach, making it accessible to anyone, regardless of their experience level.
