The Austin Permaculture Guild is an organization of Permaculture Basics, Fundamentals, and Design Course graduates, interested prospects, and other friends of food, sustainability, and the environment. Our area is mainly Central Texas but we have students, grads, and friends in Dallas, Houston, San Antonio and beyond. Permaculture aims and principles stress: growing food where people are, building/re-building soil, and creating a regenerative culture - both plant/animal and human. We add and stress the emphasis on: local, organic food,; smaller and local farms, growers, businesses; local/renewable resources; reducing consumption and increasing re-cycling and helping Nature restore its natural cycles of birth, use, and decay; and, the importance of local community and commerce.
