         Permaculture (permanent agriculture) is:

• the conscious design and maintenance of agriculturally     productive ecosystems which have the diversity, stability, and resilience of natural ecosystems.
• the harmonious integration of landscape and people providing their food, energy, shelter, and other material and non-material needs in a sustainable way.
• The philosophy behind Permaculture is:
• working with, rather than against, nature;
• of protracted and thoughtful observation rather than thoughtless action;
• of looking at systems in all their functions, rather than asking only one yield of them; and
• of allowing systems to demonstrate their own evolutions

Its goals are:

• local food production, and
• regional self-reliance constituting a sustainable earth care system

This is the bible of the worldwide Permaculture movement.
