San Diego County is fortunate to have an active and growing permaculture and ecological design community - from individuals, to organizations, to businesses, we have a healthy diversity of ongoing sustainable and regenerative pursuits.
Pemaculture is all about local - observing local systems and building off of local resources. In order to do that we need to have and build community. To do this we need to be connected to one another! We hope this list helps you do just that - get engaged in your community, plant your seeds and watch them grow!
Here at Permasystems we've complied a list of local resources active in this area:
San Diego Sustainable Living Institute - http://sdsustainable.org/
"We believe that we can make simple, daily changes that promote a more harmonious balance between humans and the earth. We know that every action towards sustainability is the right action. We can produce an abundance of local food with limited water resources, we are able to regenerate poor soils, we are equipped with the tools to build community and we will leave each piece of land better than when we found it, all the while enjoying ourselves and the process."
