We present to you the tool for examining the extent to which a farm implements the principles of agroecology and permaculture. Careful observation and analysis are the first steps in a good design. Therefore, the guide provides practical tips to help you understand the nature of the farm in all its complexity.
We also present case studies of three Polish farms that implement the principles of agroecology and permaculture. Experienced farmers and farmers shared with us their knowledge and experience as well as the challenges they face. We invite you to read the permaculture and agro-ecological transformation of farms.
