Why We’re Here

Milkwood is dedicated to sharing permaculture skills, for living like it matters. Online, in print and via our courses… whatever it takes to get you inspired, we’re here to help you learn!

We acknowledge that permaculture owes the roots of its theory and practice to traditional and Indigenous knowledges, from all over the world. We all stand on the shoulders of many ancestors - as we learn, and re-learn, these skills and concepts. We pay our deepest respects and give our heartfelt thanks to these knowledge-keepers, both past and present.⁠
