Permaculture was coined from the words "permanent culture" and "permanent agriculture" by Bill Mollison, an Australian forester, field naturalist, school teacher who wrote the book Permaculture: A Designers Manual; and David Holmgren, Mollison's student who was responsible in expanding the scope of the system. [1] Permaculture is an ecological or environmental design system that integrates all aspects human endeavors to achieve sustainable living and practices. Its primary focus is the interconnection of things more than individual parts. It teaches people to create abundant food production method, build natural homes, regenerate degraded landscapes and ecosystems, develop ethical communities and economies. [2]
