The Global Gardener with Bill Mollison

THE GLOBAL GARDENER with Bill Mollison

Australian naturalist, Bill Mollison, has travelled to over 70 countries developing fully integrated, self-sufficient communities. He coined the word "permaculture" to signify sustainable agriculture as well as permanent culture. Permaculture weaves together microclimate, annual and perennial plants, animals, soils, water management and human needs into intricately connected productive communities. As a comprehensive system of practical ecology, permaculture teaches sensible earthcare as the key to a sustainable future in harmony with the natural world. This film demonstrates the success of practical ecology in 4 major bioregions: the tripics, drylands, temperate regions, and urban zones. Bill Mollison has proved that even in the most difficult conditions permaculture empowers people to turn wastelands into food forests.

Humanist Hall is wheelchair accessible on 28th Street.

Before and after the film, everyone's invited to indulge in our Humanist Tea House.
