Small Spaces, Massive Yields: How Permagardens Are Changing Lives -The Permagardens Foundation

Can we grow more food than we ever thought possible in a very small space? Join Peter Jensen, founder of the Permagardens Foundation, as he shares a "climate-wise, nutrition-focused" approach to home gardening that is changing lives across the global south. A permagarden is designed to mitigate the effects of a changing climate by managing water runoff and maximizing soil moisture. This zero-cost method uses deep-dug beds and natural terracing to create a permanent foundation for growing nutrient-dense vegetables, grains, and legumes right outside the family home. A Permagarden is a climate-wise, nutrition-focused, family classroom that allows daily access to nutrient dense food for the family table. The method involves easy skills close to the home, using only locally accessible organic materials in small doable ways. Because all materials are local the cost to create is very low. It is the extension of the method, through our local Practitioners, that takes additional funding. This video guides you to learn why and how your help is needed as the journey of self sufficiency and climate resilience continues. In this video, you will learn about: 1. The Permagarden Concept: A permanent, sustainable food source for families. 2. Climate Resilience: Techniques to soften the blow of heavy rains and recharge subsoil moisture. 3.The Multiplier Effect: How training local practitioners leads to community-wide agricultural success. 4. Proven Results: How families have increased food production by 400% to 800% per unit area. 5. The Permagardens Foundation focuses on sharing ideas, not things. Join us in our mission to help families feed themselves.
