Permaculture:
Consulting & Design

What is Permaculture?

Permaculture is the holistic design of a system that mimic nature in terms of biodiversity, functionality, efficiency and stability. Holistic means that no part is explicable without referencing to the whole: it is the harmonious connection between plants, animals, people, structures, infrastructures and communities. 

Permaculture is working with nature, rather than against it. 

BIO

‘‘I was raised in a family deeply rooted to the land, surrounded by animals, garden and fruit trees. The flavor of homegrown fruit, salad and eggs was a profound blessing,that guided my life choices. The passion for cooking and farming means to me a deep way to honor life and its forms.

I see cooking as an agricultural act as much as planting a seed or composting a potato peel.”

 

Everything is a resource and it belongs somewhere specific in order to fully express and close the life cycles.

When I discover Permaculture I just named what I’ve been doing my whole life: try to be an active part of that process and make a good use of resources. 

Circolo was born this way, as a farm to table project to channel this vision of circularity.’’ – Alessio Marcato
