Permaculture Principles: Building Resilient Landscapes

Curious about how your backyard could support both biodiversity and sustainability? Join us for an engaging presentation on Permaculture — a design philosophy that works with nature to create resilient, regenerative landscapes. Learn how these principles can be applied to suburban yards, wildlife-friendly farms, and even distressed or contaminated soils. This session will explore how Permaculture can help reverse environmental damage, support local ecosystems, and build long-term resilience in the face of climate change. Whether you're a gardener, land steward, or simply interested in sustainable living, this is a great opportunity to gain practical insights and ask questions. About our speaker: Dr. Charles Reith holds a PhD in Ecology and brings decades of global experience applying Permaculture to restore degraded landscapes and reverse desertification caused by agricultural abuse and climate change. He has authored three books and dozens of technical publications on land remediation and sustainable resource management, and he is passionate about empowering communities to work in harmony with the land.
