The Roots n Permaculture Knowledge Base is a collection of practical knowledge, design thinking, and applied experience. It brings together resources for working with land, plants, and communities in ways that are grounded, responsive, and regenerative.
This is a working resource shaped by real projects, observation, and ongoing learning. The focus is on what can be applied in practice, not just discussed in theory.
What You’ll Find Here
The Knowledge Base is organised into focused sections to help you navigate key areas of learning:
- Tools and Resources – practical methods, guides, and reference material
- Translations – sharing knowledge across languages and contexts
- Permaculture Resources – principles, design approaches, and applied thinking
- Forest Garden Resources – planting systems, structure, and long-term design
- Course Organisers Resources – materials for teaching, facilitation, and learning spaces
Each section reflects practical use — resources that can be adapted, tested, and refined in real situations.
Learning Through Practice
Much of the content is based on lived experience, including community growing spaces, urban projects, and forest garden development. These examples show how design decisions evolve over time in response to place, people, and changing conditions.
You’ll find processes, reflections, and outcomes — including what worked, what didn’t, and why.
For People and Projects
This Knowledge Base supports both individuals and groups. Whether you are tending a garden, contributing to a shared space, or organising a project, the aim is to offer clear and usable guidance.
The focus is on working with available resources, building understanding through practice, and sharing knowledge in open and accessible ways.
An Evolving Resource
This is a living collection. New material is added as projects develop, ideas are tested, and insights are refined. It reflects an ongoing process rather than a fixed body of work.
Use it as a reference, a starting point, or a companion to your own learning and practice.
