Highlights

"The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
 
A creative card deck sharing a collection of permaculture principles, strategies, attitudes, ethics and design methods. Over 230 cards to support your permaculture practice, learning, teaching, designing and consulting. Serves as a design tool, game and oracle.
 
The card deck features text from Delvin Solkinson sharing Permaculture Design Principles and Tools learned from Bill Mollison, Rosemary Morrow, David Holmgren, Robin Clayfield, Geoff Lawton, Graham Bell, Michael Becker, Toby Hemenway, Larry Santoyo, Susun Weed, Tom Ward, Jude Hobbs, Starhawk & Looby Macnamara.

Additional contributions were inspired by Rob Hopkins, Dave Boehnlein, Max Lindegger, Richard Wallner, Mark Lakeman, Doug Bullock, Andrew Faust, Penny Livingston-Stark, Ian McHarg and P.A. Yeomans.

Core source inspiration from Robin Clayfield whose many card decks and games are the heart of this work. Special thanks to Maddy Harland for her mentorship and support. Looby Macnamara is a true visionary who has inspired much of this work. Grateful to Tamara Griffiths who helped identify many of the principles in early versions of the deck.

This work is the culmination of 20 years of Permaculture Design study by Delvin Solkinson which spanned a PDC, Diploma and Masters Degree with Bill Mollison and the Permaculture Academy, a second Diploma through the Permaculture Institute and a current third Diploma through the Permaculture Association. Delvin has collected these principles and core concepts at 13 Permaculture Design Advanced Courses and 13 Teacher Trainings as well as additional PDC's with Rosemary Morrow, Toby Hemenway and Geoff Lawton.

Awesome thanks to our core team:
Grace Solkinson, Kym Chi, Dana Wilson, Annaliese Hordern, Tamara Griffiths​

Awesome thanks for core support from:
Martin Bridge​, Paul Myers, Keri Chiveralls​, Dan Palmer​, Elijah Santoyo, Jason Gerhardt​.

Proofreading and Copy Editing of the 2018 edition by Philippe Bourse.

This deck is a companion for the Permaculture Design Notes and Permaculture Teachers Notes. Together they form a toolkit sharing a creative essence of Permaculture Design.

Share and support this work to collaborate in making permaculture accessible in a gamified form which is freely shared with the World Community.

Beautiful cards. They matched the description perfectly and the information that I had wanted from them was presented better than I had expected. They are made from and packaged in an environmentally responsible way, which is what I would expect from environmentalists! Sometimes that is not always the case!!! Thank you, I look forward to my next purchase to assist my learning in permaculture.
