Sepp Holzer's Permaculture: A Practical Guide to Small-Scale, Integrative Farming and Gardening Tapa blanda – 28 Marzo 2011
Opciones de compra y productos Add-on
In this book, Holzer shares the skill and knowledge acquired over his lifetime. He covers every aspect of his farming methods, not just how to create a holistic system on the farm itself, but how to make a living from it. Holzer writes about everything from the overall concepts, down to the practical details. In Sepp Holzer’s Permaculture readers will learn:
- How he sets up a permaculture system
- The fruit varieties he has found best for permaculture growing
- How to construct terraces, ponds, and waterways
- How to build shelters for animals and how to work with them on the land
- How to cultivate edible mushrooms in the garden and on the farm
- and much more!
Holzer offers a wealth of information for the gardener, smallholder or alternative farmer yet the book’s greatest value is the attitudes it teaches. He reveals the thinking processes based on principles found in nature that create his productive systems. These can be applied anywhere.

Críticas
"There, at an altitude which everyone else has abandoned to low-value forestry, what is probably the best example of a permaculture farm in Europe stands out like a beacon."--Patrick Whitefield, permaculture author and teacher
“Holzer's beautifully designed and illustrated book is essential reading for all who care about the land and the vast interrelated web of living beings who inhabit it, and it is especially timely, since small and organic farmers in the United States are being threatened by agribusiness, chemical companies, and others who view nature as something to conquer and ravish rather than honor and learn from. Large- and small-scale farmers, home gardeners, and even those who only have room to grow in a few pots on a city balcony will find Holzer's methods applicable and effective, his reasoning and knowledge impeccable, and his spirit pure and honest.—ForeWord Reviews
"The real story of a 110+ acre commercial permaculture farm featuring 14,000 fruit trees with diverse understory plants, complete integration of rotationally grazed livestock, terraces and rainwater harvesting, and so much more. Anyone interested in taking permaculture to a larger scale in a cold climate will benefit from Sepp Holtzer's 40 years of practical experience implementing permaculture principles."—Eric Toensmeier, author of Perennial Vegetables and co-author of Edible Forest Gardens
“Here's great news for fruit-loving gardeners everywhere! Most of the work of establishing, pruning, and tending fruit trees by 'modern' methods is unnecessary and even counterproductive. Sepp Holzer's Permaculture is the One-Straw Revolution for tree crops.”—Carol Deppe, author of The Resilient Gardener: Food Production and Self-reliance in Uncertain Times
"After reading this book, all I can say is Sepp Holzer is a Superstar Farmer. Holzer turns out an absolutely remarkable volume and variety of food products, all without one smidgen of chemical fertilizer, and on land in Austria that an Illinois corn farmer would pronounce too marginal for agriculture. American farmers and gardeners will be particularly interested in Holzer's raised beds--which are quite different in construction from ours in the U.S.--as well as his inventive water well irrigation systems, unique methods for integrating livestock into his fruit and vegetable gardens, and practical, low-labor way to grow mushrooms. A fascinating book for anyone who aspires to become the ultimate, champion professional of sustainable farming."—Gene Logsdon, author of Holy Shit: Managing Manure to Save Mankind, and The Contrary Farmer
"As the era of cheap energy, stable climates and surplus fertilizer stocks comes to a close, the principles of permaculture will become increasingly attractive as one way to design our future food and agriculture systems. Sepp Holzer's Permaculture provides important insights for applying these principles, for both rural farming and emerging forms of urban agriculture."—Frederick Kirschenmann, President, Stone Barns Center for Food and Agriculture

His farm now spans over 45 hectares of forest gardens, including 70 ponds, and is said to be the most consistent example of permaculture worldwide. He is author of several books and the subject of the film The Agricultural Rebel. He works nationally as permaculture activist in the established agricultural industry and works internationally as adviser for ecological agriculture. He is the author of Desert or Paradise: Restoring Endangered Landscapes Using Water Management, Including Lake and Pond Construction, and Sepp Holzer's Permaculture: A Practical Guide to Small-Scale, Integrative Farming and Gardening.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 8 de enero de 2025This is not the complete information. More like a helpful step in the process of figuring out what to do for your particular property.
Fir me, it is a good reference tool, which I consult in conjunction with Permies.com which has a discussion section on Sepp’s methods. Joining is free and then one can ask questions about how Sepp does things and often get answers!

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 18 de agosto de 2012Mr. Holzer's book was fantastic, my husband and I are reading it together, we are almost finished. When we bought our farm, we had a clean slate, the land had not been farmed in many years, we are doing just about everything on it either with a tractor or by hand, including fencing the entire thing in with a "by hand" post hole digger. We have been searching for information on how to make this a "multipurpose" "self-sufficient" farm. A farm with the main goal of being able to help feed the less fortunate & feed our family, we did not want to use any chemicals! We have prayed over our land even before we bought it, that God would use it in a big way! We feel God led us to read this book, we had NEVER heard of permaculture, though my husbands family had farmed for many years & as we have learned in this book, some of the reasons my husbands Grandfather did things the way he did them was for the very reasons that Mr. Holzer farms the way he does!! We are so excited as we plan to build "earth shelters" around our farm, and there is several areas where the "terraces" he spoke of will do so much good for us! The only downfall I have found so far is that Mr. Holzer's book The Rebel Farmer is not available on the Kindle! We are going to have to order a "real book". Other reviews I read said he did not go into enough detail.. OH YES HE DID! The details are fantastic! And he does state in this book that he has even more detailed information in The Rebel Farmer! I plan to order it right away! Thank you Mr. Holzer for sharing your very important information with all of us! And thank you that is was available on the Kindle!! What a fantastic find the Lord has led us too! There will be many many people that will benefit from our farm for years, God willing, thanks to YOU Mr. Holzer!! Our Farm in named aptly "Matana Farm", Matana is a Hebrew word for "gift". This farm was a gift from God and we plan on passing the gifts on for many years to come!! Thank you Mr. Holzer & Amazon & Kindle!!

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 24 de abril de 2014This book is perfect who believes in a 'green' environment, a complete avoidance to chemicals, descriptions on microclimate and macroclimate designing, utilization of your farm animals to do your yard work, farming in very inhospitable environments, and the ability to recover any land from past abuse. I 'ear-marked' a dozen pages for important information that I will forever refer back to and the index at the back of the book is superb for finding topics, foods, and practices described throughout the book, which makes this book efficient and very user friendly. The use of hugelkultur, swales, keyline, ponds, trees, and rocks to create a bountiful yard or small farm is exactly the type of self-reliant infrastructure I am looking for. Once established, this self-sustaining program can easily turn a profit for anyone anywhere. This book has totally changed my outlook on what is a weed and how many of these predetermined 'weeds' actually provide a huge benefit to the garden, bees, birds and beneficial insects so pesticides can be avoided. I plan on reading the book a second time to fully grasp the intricacies of farming in this manner. I now have a much lesser outlook on monoculture farming and how destructive commercial farming really is.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 2 de mayo de 2011This was an easy read, not at all dry or too technical. Mr Holzer describes his farming methods and his farm, his trials and errors and the lessons he learned the hard way.
He talks about permaculture, principles that he has been applying even before the term was coined. He has some great ideas, and you only have to see the pictures of his farm to know that they really work.
What I didn't like about it was that although he tells us what he did on his farm, he doesn't give enough details on how he does them. He whets your appetite for his methods, but then doesn't tell you enough. For example, he says stuff like: "I use foxglove to improve the health of the soil, among other reasons". It only leaves me wondering, what are those reasons?
He keeps telling that he has been watching the nature for 40 years, but he doesn't give the recipes for his plant mixtures. Instead, he suggests that one should observe nature and experiment for oneself.
I bought the book precisely to learn from his experiences, instead of having to spend years observing nature myself.
But overall it is a fascinating read, especially if you want an introduction to permaculture. It is a great lesson on thinking outside the box and succeeding against all odds. You can feel his love and respect for nature and for his land.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 17 de julio de 2024Sepp Is the granddaddy of permaculturists and this book only highlights just how pivotal his work has been.
Even if you're not super into permaculture or you don't know much about it, this book is a fantastic journey on what Sepp has learned throughout his very interesting life. Even though I only have a postage stamp for a backyard, I plan on implementing some simple permacultural techniques I learned in this book to help me have a healthier green space.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 24 de marzo de 2025Everyone's got their own hints, tips and tricks for success in the permaculture realm. Sepp's book is no different. Read it. You'll learn something.

KarenCalificado en Reino Unido el 8 de enero de 20115.0 de 5 estrellas A New Eden
I first came across Sepp Holzer when I read an article about him in the Permaculture Magazine and I was totally impressed with what he had achieved. Let's face it, anyone who can grew kiwi fruit outdoors, 1500m up a mountain in Austria, is definitely worth listening to. After all, everyone else is simply growing low-grade fir trees at those altitudes. I read his autobiography, The Rebel Farmer, and watched the DVDs that have been made about his farm, the Krameterhof. I found the man and his achievements a complete inspiration so was delighted when he decided to produce a practical guide for the rest of us.
Sepp Holzer's Permaculture is a comprehensive guide which clearly explains the methods he has used. It is heavily illustrated with photographs and detailed diagrams as well as very informative text. The book itself is a quality paperback and is a credit to the author and the publishers. I have many books on permaculture but few inspire me as much as this one does. I am looking forward to applying many of Sepp's ideas to my own small-holding, which is only four acres and located at a maximum of 59m in West Wales. The one thing Sepp emphasizes is that we should observe nature before we do anything. So his book will supply the ideas and my own observations will enable me to adapt them to my land. Will I be able to produce exotic fruits and become self-sufficient? Who knows, but this book will certainly help me on my way.

This book is really a great read. It's well written engaging and informative. Once I started reading I struggled to put it down. Its full on innovative ideas and really solid informative information on how to live with and from your land and your animals. You will not be disappointed buying this. You will only be disappointed it wasn't bigger when you finish reading! Great book!

DavidCalificado en Francia el 1 de septiembre de 20175.0 de 5 estrellas Excellent Book
Easy to read and excellent data. I have numerous books on permaculture, organic gardening and this one is the simplest and most useful. I highly recommend. Its simplicity tells the tale - one can actually do it. Some of the books I have are so complex as to not be able to get through them... too deep into technical subjects that aren't really necessary to get the job done and lead to dropping the book. I read this one in a few sittings and I've got what I need to do and have started rolling.
