Gaiacraft : Free Permaculture Learning and Teaching Tools

I like to think of the four paths of permaculture as learning, teaching, doing and sharing. I have spent my time learning from elders of permaculture, learning through teaching my classes, learning through doing in my community gardens but perhaps most of all, learning through creating free open source permaculture educational media and teaching tools that combine together everything I have learned and share it with the World Community. These are available as free downloads at printable resolution.

One of these tools is a set of 81 hexagonal permaculture elements cards showing illustrators of elements commonly found on permaculture farms. These can support learning games and design charrettes. https://gaiacraft.com/gaiacraft-permaculture-design-elements-deck/

To compliment these are a series of large game boards that feature base maps which are comparable with the elements cards. https://gaiacraft.com/permaculture-elements-game-boards/

Another of these toolkits is a set of 101 core concepts from permaculture cards which share principles, strategies, attitudes, design methods and ethics I have collected over the past 13 years of taking permaculture courses from many pioneers. https://gaiacraft.com/permaculture-principles-design-deck/

I hope this can support your learning and teaching practice, as well as inspire you to make permaculture learning and teaching tools to share with the movement.
