Description

Organise your garden, your life and share your schedule with this deceptively simple but thought-provoking permaculture calendar – for your home or workplace. Illustrating one of the twelve permaculture design principles for each month, gives you the time to absorb them. Each example includes and image and story of locally appropriate sustainable living and design.

The 2018 calendar features a communal lunch at Hibi Farm – part of a spontaneous community of households, affectionately titled ‘the hood‘, that has evolved in Melbourne’s north, Australia. We’ve included also images from projects in other parts of the world, including the USA, New Zealand and India.

Included is a planting guide that can help yield more productive crops and healthier plants by planning your garden activities according to the moon phases. Exact phase time changes along with daily icons enhance the traditional gardening rhythms that have been handed down over the centuries.

Produced in Australia on 100% recycled paper using vegetable based inks. Size: A4 (210mm x 297mm) opening to A3.

What makes the permaculture calendar ethical?

The permaculture calendar is made from 100% post consumer recycled pulp on certified carbon neutral paper that is manufactured and printed in Australia using 100% renewable energy.

The calendar’s size and weight take advantage of standardised postage and reduced freight costs. Printing plates and paper waste are all recycled. Inks are vegetable based so don’t release unnecessary VOC’s into the atmosphere or require harmful solvents for clean up. Once the calendar has reached the end of its life you can recycle or compost it, hang the pictures, or keep it intact as a reminder of the principles and important events over the year.
