A Beginner's Guide to Permaculture

On Wednesday, November 02 WHW’s Sustainable Circus hosted a ‘Beginner’s guide to Permaculture’ workshop with our guests Stephan Hederich and Gerlinde Pilgrimm from Green Dragon Farm. Permaculture is based on designing human settlements and agricultural systems modeled on the relationship found in nature. We explored the ethics and design principles behind the diversity and creativity of the Permaculture approach with our guests and shared some great fresh food from their biodynamic farm, including fresh cheese from Billie. This connexion between architectural and agricultural strategies was fascinating and really helped expand and develop our culture of sustainability here at WHW Architects.
