What is The Polyculture Project ?

 At the Polyculture Project our goal is to develop and promote practices that can produce food and other resources for humans while enhancing biodiversity. We experiment with various regenerative/permaculture practices and publish our records with aim to supply solid empirical data for the community.  

What are we doing ?

• Running trial gardens to test various popular permaculture practices
• Publishing our results online, sharing what does and does not work 
• Opening our trial gardens to visitors
• Sharing our methodology for others to replicate our studies and challenge our findings
• Running onsite and online training and education programs.

Why is this research important ?

• With the results of our studies we aim to provide information based on empirical data to encourage and guide best practices to landscapers, gardeners, farmers and homesteaders ​​
• On the political and economic level data is essential for influencing policy changes that promote regenerative practices  

Would you like to be involved ?

• You can participate directly with our research and join our internship program from April  -September -  see here for details  ​​
• We are open to PhD students to use our sites to carry out research projects, particularly students of  Pedology, Edaphology, Entomology, Ecology and Botany.
