Permaculture Design: Tools for Climate Resilience
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC
Rating
0.0 stars

Climate is also where we begin the design process in another tool referenced in the Permaculture design system. This is the Scale of Landscape Permanence, originated by P.A.Yeomans, the founder of Keyline™ Design. Yeomans asserts that the order of design is:

Climate
Landshape
Water Supply
Roads/Access
Trees
Structures
Subdivision Fences
Soil
This book is predominantly about climate, and the macro influences of climate and climate change on design. As we get through the topics of climate analogues and climate change forecasting, we will end up moving down this list to see the climate’s influence on specific design choices.

SAE Foundational Awareness

Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

In agricultural education, learning does not start and stop at the classroom door! Through FFA and Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE) you will have many opportunities to learn and develop real-world skills outside of the classroom and beyond the school day. As part of your agriculture education class you will develop a Foundational SAE aligned to your career interests. This guide will help you get the most out of the experience. Where you will have a Foundational SAE throughout your experience in agricultural education, there are three levels of Foundational SAE Independent Learning Guides available: Awareness, Intermediate, and Advanced. ach guide provides developmentally appropriate activities that progress as you advance from entering agricultural education to high school completion. The Awareness guide is intended for first-time agriculture education students and those continuing students who are still unsure of their career area of interest, and is intended for students in grades 6 through 9.
