The Permaculture Student 2: A Collection of Regenerative Solutions (2)

This book is priceless to me. The more I learn about this topic, the more I realize just how far humans have strayed from understanding nature and our world. This information should be taught to our children. We need to protect our planet, our health, and our ecosystems. This book is beautifully organized and illustrated. Must read!!

Excellent! I think Permaculture should be taught in Middle School & High School & Beyond, as it offers solutions to todays environmental problems, by delving into lifestyle changes to help save our world! I Loved this book & encourage others to partake!

Very informative. Takes you through the though and steps to start and complete a design. As a side, the author has very good video work online. Enjoy his works!

FAST SHIPPING ~ VERY PLEASED ~ THANK YOU !

When I found "The Permaculture Student 2: A Collection of Regenerative Solutions", I had worked my way through most of Bill Mollison's "Permaculture Design Manual". Matt's "The Permaculture Student 2" bridged so much information for me that has been refined over the 30 years since Bill's book was written. Although "The Permaculture Student 2" is a smaller book, it's very approachable and it is not lacking in knowledge and information. Through the author's collaboration and peer review with others in various permaculture niches, "The Permaculture Student 2" tells and shows how people are living a permaculture lifestyle right now, and how you can apply different concepts yourself as you come to know and understand them. From water, to earth, plants and seeds, insects and animals, food, even to personal and community relationships, Matt Power's book has powerful knowledge to help not only heal the planet, but heal ourselves and our communities, as well. I recommend sharing this book with others who want to learn more about permaculture. You don't have to be a die-hard, eco-friendly person to find great information on living more abundantly and regeneratively. This book is positive and encouraging on taking steps to align your daily choices with sustainability. It's also readable from 8th grade level through adult, so youth can take advantage of the information and inspiration it has to offer, as well. I loved the book and began using principles taught in it right away. It's a great value.

Every segment of this book is valuable in it's own right, and will assist you in your particular goals and personal needs. Permaculture can literally be applied to every aspect of life no matter your background, and we are fortunate to have an author like Matt to present the topic in such an easy to understand and actionable format. For me, the food growing aspect of permaculture really drew me to this book. I've heard Matt say, "save the seeds from your best plants grown in your worst soils." This is a perfect example of growing resilient crops and framing your mindset for the more difficult times in life. It is my hope that many others are drawn to Matt's work, permaculture, and gardening in general through The Permaculture Student 2, to become more resilient themselves and for their communities. Whether you're just setting out on your permaculture journey or have been at it for years, this is the book to get, it will blow your mind.

My family had the wonderful opportunity to attend a lecture by Matt Powers. Matt is an infectious speaker, providing an amazing amount of information and motivation in just two hours. I diligently took notes--and realized I wanted to "deep-dive" into so many of the topic areas he covered while speaking, so I invested in his book. This book is now my constant companion--it is so riveting that I take it with me to the beach, read it while waiting for kids to return from a day of camp, and sneak time on my sofa with this tome between time with my beloved red wigglers and making meals for the ever-hungry kids in my household! I have already learned a ton. Most importantly, this is a book filled with hope and action--both ingredients are necessary to help us in the ever-changing world we are so lucky to be stewards of...Enjoy! Take Action! Spread the word!

This superb educational book is appropriate for students in middle school, high school, college and beyond. Photographs and graphics are abundant and very helpful in explaining the subject matter. Contributing authors are top-notch. The extensiveness of topics covered is outstanding. I enthusiastically recommend this book!

Matt has been the most captivating teacher I’ve known. Not only does he bring together the most incredible permaculture experts in the world to join him in contributing to permaculture education, but he inspires confidence and zest for life—this masterpiece is a “can do” infusion! I am ever grateful for Matt’s guidance as I embark upon making permaculture my way of life. This book is one that I’ll keep always out and available for reference. There’s so much wisdom and information in it. I find excitement in sharing different lessons and chapters with friends. It’s been awesome putting into practice what I’ve learned on my own little piece of earth. I feel like it could take many years to absorb all of what the Permaculture Student 2 has to offer, and I love that.

This book is an amazing way to introduce yourself or others to permaculture! It is simple and easy to understand, while still diving into more advanced concepts. I have so far been incredibly impressed by Matt Powers and his ability to teach and demonstrate regenerative solutions to both adults and children alike. The material is interesting and sparks curiosity and desire to implement all that you learn, and to relish the results. I would also encourage people to check out Matt's Advanced Permaculture Course and I would highly recommend this book to anyone, especially those ready to grow abundantly and live regeneratively!!

Matt Powers is a great teacher and writer. This is a great book and curriculum.

I have this, and several more of Matt Powers' books. I also took his advanced permaculture design course, and found it to be not only what I expected from my own years of study of the subject, but also much more. The book for the course (this one) covers the basics, then goes into detail with so many interesting subjects related to an entire permaculture lifestyle. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an addition to their book collection.

If you are looking for a practical, down-to-earth book that ACTUALLY teaches you how to DO permaculture in addition to planning, this is your book. It's full of the latest research and brimming with expert advice in addition to Matt's unbelievable knowledge. I own about 10 other Permaculture books and this is the one I reach for the most - actually, it never leaves my desk. Maybe I am a bit biased, as I am one of his students, but I love this book!

It was a joy to write and collaborate to create this one of kind textbook. Thank you all for contributing and supporting this work! :)

Matt Powers has been providing open source Permaculture information for quite some time, high quality PODCASTS and BROADCASTS, this man has found brought together some of best minds and movements out there, anything with his name on it is worth your time in some way even if you think you don't have time... I used to listen to his podcasts while I did side-work as a busser.

Amazing book!! so glad I purchased this book! Very well written,Matt Powers is a awesome author! Have used this book multiple times while gardening! A must have!!!

I purchased this as a resource for an ecology class that I teach. I was blown away with the amount of collaboration and research that went into this project. We used the book not only as a reference to regenerative strategies, but eventually defaulted to the book as a complete curriculum guide. I recommend this book for anyone teaching young people about not only permaculture but regenerative practices in general.

This book is INCREDIBLE. I have read the beginning have portion of it and it has connected permaculture more full circle for me than any of the previous related books. Matts teaching and orator style are clearly translated through his writing, as this has assisted me very much so in learning how to convey my self when explaining the simple procedures he elaborates on to other people. I would show this to my children even as early as 6 years old and I am getting a copy of the Regenerative Career Guide for my pre-teen and adult cousins.

I have the digital copy of this and it is fantastic. I cant wait to pick up a physical copy for my collection.

This is a very approachable and easily understood resource for those interested in a Permacultural lifestyle. There are many resources out there that claim to address "Permaculture," but this book covers all the important groundwork as well as many aspects often overlooked by others. Also, Matt Powers is just one of the best people to learn from. Period.

Very good book for people interested in permaculture and better ways for farming and food production, even in a small apartment.

The book contains colorful pictures, diagrams, and examples of permaculture design in the world. This book is both broad and deep covering practical regenerative practices including aquaculture, composting, silvopasture, and rainwater harvesting. Combined with the Advanced Permaculture Student Online course this is the best value you can get.

The author, Matt Powers, did an excellent job presenting the science behind Permaculture in a clear, concise, and digestible way. The book was both educational as well as highly entertaining to read.

I love its in depth explanation and teachings of permaculture! Shows us the easier way to garden and the yummiest way! There's no better way to say it 💚🌱😁

It's crazy to say but this "gardening" book has been life changing! Matt does an amazing job of opening Permaculture up for beginners and there are so many concepts you can scale down for younger kids. This is a fabulous book for life learners to come back to over and over again

I rely on knowledge of those who have come before me, those who have the vital information based on practices and principals in the field of permaculture and the guidance to develop a steadfast plan. This book provides this and beyond. It is made easy for the armature, yet hits the key points to take you to the next level you want to be. I am pleased to have this well laid out book in my library and use it for years to come as a reference.

Great introduction to permaculture that gives action steps for anyone interested in taking the next step towards a regenerative future. I have been using this book along side the Advanced Permaculture Student Online course w/ Matt Powers.

Amazing book about permaculture and easy to understand, made simple but also is a great resource for advanced research on the subject I would recommend this and have to all my friends and family

Matt Powers is a professional educator and with this book he definitely educates! There is no other book like in because no other book has been peer-reviewed.

So thrilled with this book, quickly became my “go to” for “how to” on permaculture. Massive amounts of information!

Matt Powers has really put it all together for us in The Permaculture Student 2. I haven't made it all the way through the book yet but I can already say confidently that this is a must have for my homestead and I look forward to using it in our children's home school along with Matt's other great books.

Beautiful illustration, and wonderful content! Wish it was bigger to share with kids easier.

Matt loves to teach, and his book demonstrates this enthusiasm. I'm grateful to have this book as a resource and recommend it with five stars.

For the well being of this planet and all its residents, this book is a must!
