PermaKulcha
In an imagine conversation with Bill and David??
I think the best starting point is to go back to an imagined conversation with Bill and David??
I would have said why permaculture, surely permagarden or permaagriculture.
David may have responded "Robin your not hearing Bill, its bigger than that. Its more than just garden, it can include anything.
Then i would have replied, then why not call it permasystems/permadesign???.
I went on to explain because by using the word culture and applying it so specifically to gardening is not making it easy to see how the "permaculture" principles apply to spaces outside the garden. That if was to offer a thought it would be to call the philosophy Permasystems.
David/Bill, you highlight the permagarden side of things and I highlight the permaculture/kulcha side of things.
That way both implementations demonstrate the broader possibilities of Perma/Design/Culture, Its not just about the garden.
