About Mona
For me it all starts with the land and the people around me. I used to be much of a lone rider but over time I have realized the power of community and people thinking, learning and doing together. Permaculture has played a major role in that transformation. I have big visions. I love to plan. I love to garden. I hope to create a piece of heaven on my tiny place on earth that will create ripples to other corners of the world. I want to take my share of the responsibility to turn the global downward spiral into a prosperous world for all. I want to start in my place, work with my local community and, through the truly inspiring and creative processes of permaculture, be a part of creating hope and change.
