Permaculture co-founder is taking his ‘Survive and Thrive’ tour on the road, SIMON WEBSTER reports.

Negotiating the challenges of a changing world is on the agenda as permaculture co-founder David Holmgren embarks on a speaking tour around Australia this week.

Alongside system analyst Nicole Foss, Holmgren will present the ‘Survive and Thrive’ tour, outlining strategies for sustainable living that will allow families to prosper as society deals with the limits of growth, and the financial, resource and environmental crises that may ensue.

As well as ‘Survive and Thrive’ talks, the tour also features ‘Crash or Crash Through’ workshops.

It all kicks off Sydney on Friday, June 27.
