Permaculture Pioneers, edited by Kerry Dawborn & Caroline Smith, explores social and inner change for sustainability, charting a history of the first three decades of permaculture through the personal stories of Australian permaculturists.
From permaculture co-originator David Holmgren to ABC Gardening Australia presenter Josh Byrne, the authors span the generations and the continent.
These stories represent the scope, depth and diversity of Australian permaculture.
They explore some of the influences on those who have embraced it, record milestones and highlight recurring themes.
The editors’ contributions and afterword by social ecologist Professor Stuart B Hill frame the stories in terms of the transformation of the inner landscape of our minds and hearts, as the critical starting point for the outer change that is needed.
For Australians and others around the world whose lives have been changed by permaculture, this book provides a context for articulating and celebrating their own stories and experiences.
Even more, it invites each of us, permaculturists or not, to embrace our power in designing our world out of the best in ourselves, for the benefit of the whole earth community.
Like tough, resilient pioneer plants with their ability to grow in barren and hostile ground, social pioneers work courageously at the edges of accepted norms, bringing new ideas and opportunities.
They build knowledge, experience and new perspectives – fertile soil for those who follow.
