Frequently asked gardening related questions
"Relative location" is a core permaculture design principle that states that elements should be placed in relation to each other so they assist each other. For example, a chicken coop near an orchard allows chickens to forage for pests and fertilise trees. A pond near a greenhouse can help moderate temperature. Placing elements strategically to maximise beneficial connections and minimise energy inputs for their function is central to efficient permaculture design.
