      Permaculture is a system of conscious design that mimics the patterns and relationships of nature to provide for local human needs. It can be applied to anything from growing food on an apartment balcony to managing a broadscale farm to designing an industrial process to running a community economic development project. Permaculture helps you to design a farmland for optimal utilization of the land and its resources to create a self sustaining ecosystem.As a Permaculture Consultant, I design and implement resilient and aesthetic farmlands which are regenerative and abundant too. The steps involved are:* Site survey, * SWOT analysis, * Client interview to understand their unique needs, * Design of the Site Landscape taking into consideration the various energies like rain, wind, sun* Advice during Implementation of the designAs a Permaculture Trainer, I conduct short workshops and talks for aspiring and existing farmers / farmhouse developers.
