About us
As we face energy, climate and economic challenges, permaculture offers one of the best "tool kits" for moving in a positive and productive direction: resilient communities full of creative abundance. Wherever you are and whatever you are doing, there is some part of permaculture that will make sense for your life and your relationship to the landscape where you live and work. Join us in exploring the possibilities!
We cover topics such as (but not limited to) edible landscapes, gardening, farming, regenerative practices, renewable energy, green building, local currency, rainwater harvesting, composting, mushrooms, local food, forest gardening, herbalism, "green" living, sustainable economic systems, conservation, community-building, relocalization, transition towns, and more!
Also make sure to sign up for the Hudson Valley Permaculture listserv (click here).

Zero Wa$te Planning
Rosendale Community Center, 1055 Rt 32, Rosendale, NY, USOrganizer Claudia Joseph will talk about the Ulster County Zero Waste Implementation Plan (ZWIP) being collaboratively constructed by UCCRA, the Ulster County Legislature, stakeholders and citizens.
We may also look at the Circular Economy Strategic Plan by Sustainable Hudson Valley, a study already in place that feeds into the ZWIP.Waste is an economic burden and a management challenge. We are fortunate to have this opportunity for input since the decisions will impact all residents for years to come. Imaginative thinking is needed as well as volunteer energy to implement outreach. The RRA is earnestly attempting to head off a waste crisis as the landfill we utilize is scheduled to close next year.
Repair Revolution is a suggested read for back-round on one of the movements driving repair, reuse, reinvention, and community spirit or visit the Find A Repair page of the RRA website. Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Regift, Recover, Recycle are waste reduction methods recommended by the RRA. They are already doing an excellent job and can use our help to do even more! Preparation of the Prelimenary ZWIP is in process and planned to be completed by year's end. Now is the time to comment.
