Connecting with plants-a guide to belonging, ecological resilience, and permaculture design
The plants in our world not only nourish and sustain us, they also root us within our human and ecological communities. Mulberries in the Rain explores these vital connections, combining evocative storytelling with detailed crop profiles and permaculture design tools to mentor and inspire you.
Central to permaculture is the art of creating beneficial relationships - crafting inherently regenerative food systems modeled on nature. As growers, we tend to interpret this idea literally-think companion planting, edible ecosystems, and food forests. Where do social relations and community building fit in?
Authors and permaculture experts Ryan Blosser and Trevor Piersol:
- Demystify plant guilds, showing how to create biodiverse, low-maintenance ecological systems
- Integrate tried and tested permaculture frameworks such as the Scale of Perm
