Core values
At the heart of permaculture design and practice is a fundamental set of core values or ethics which remain constant whatever a person’s situation. These ethics are often summarized as;
Earthcare: recognizing Earth as the source of all life and recognising that mankind is part of Earth, not apart from it.
Peoplecare: supporting and helping each other live in ways that harm neither ourselves, aniamls or Mother Earth herself and develop healthy societies.
Fairshare : using Earth’s limited natural resources in ways that are equitable and wise.
