VWP023: Permaculture

Village Wisdom Podcast

Permaculture and peaceful villages. How do they relate? Well, it’s all about sustainability, using what is in the environment and not overusing it and returning the abundance to the land and people. The three ethics of permaculture are:

  1. Care of the Earth
  2. Care of Species
  3. Return of surplus to the first two

In this podcast I’m going over the basics of permaculture. It is so much more than farming or creating sustainable agriculture. The same principles apply to each and every one of us as we interact with the environment around us. We are part of the Earth. We are part of the sustainability. Creating a peaceful village that works in harmony with each other and the Earth has been a dream of mine since my college days.

After years of wandering I’m finally making that dream a reality. If it is to be then we must do it. Waiting on and depending on a government official or new policy will never work. It takes actually doing the work. It means interacting with others. Permaculture means working together to build the society of which we dream. It’s not going to be created by government officials. It’s going to be created by you and me.

VWP001: Intro to Village Wisdom Podcast

Welcome to the Village Wisdom PodcastVillage Wisdom Podcast - Welcome

Welcome, welcome welcome. I’m so excited to finally be bringing you this introductory podcast. I have had the idea for some time. But it takes a little bit of guts to get in front of that microphone. 

I hope you enjoy the content. I look forward to your feedback. My purpose here is to talk about life and how it brings us wisdom. I’m going to talk about some controversial subjects and my goal is to provide a perspective that you will not hear from your friends, co-workers, family and definitely not on the news.

My desire is to keep and open mind and to share that with others. It makes life so much more fun and useful. 

What the heck is the village wisdom anyway?

  • Wheel Of Time – The Wisdom
  • Village wisdom – Passing down tradition and tribal/societal knowledge

What is wisdom? Why do we want it?

And how do we become wise?

  • What I’ve learned
