Permaculture 

Permaculture brings together knowledge from ecology, gardening and agriculture to find systems in nature that can form the basis of perennial agricultural systems, reducing systemic reliance on industrial production and logistics. 

Community-supported Agriculture 

Based on the principle of “shared responsibility”, community-supported agriculture aims to rebuild partnerships between farmers, the local community and the land through supporting local agriculture. In this framework, consumers buy directly from local farmers, enabling farmers to have a more stable income whilst enjoying fresher food from a known source.  

Raw Foodism 

Eating raw means rejecting processed and refined foods and eating raw wherever possible (70% uncooked; 30% cooked) to avoid loss of nutrients such as enzymes and vitamins. Meats and protein and cooked slowly and at a low heat not exceeding 47˚C. Methods such as steaming and air-dry are preferred over frying. 

Veganism 

Going further than vegetarianism, veganism abstains from all animal-derived ingredients such as meats, eggs and dairy products. At its core is plant-based eating with the goal of helping the body regain balance, reducing carbon emissions from industries and improving the treatment of animals in industralised farms.
