Karuna's still in the garden
Karuna Pilkington graduated with a Certificate IV in Accredited Permaculture Training at the Permaforest Trust in 2005. Here's her thoughts of how Permaculture and a grounded lifestyle fit together...
"Hi my name is Karuna, as you can see in my picture I'm still living in the garden - since living at the Trust it is an essential part of my lifestyle. Living at the Trust taught me the skills and awareness to integrate my life sustainably into the world. Learning about Permaculture has truly helped me to ground my spirituality in the rhythms of nature, my life now is a combination of all the tools in life I've picked up, a daily yoga practice, beach (I live in the Byron shire), gardening, a part time job, riding my push bike (yeah - no polluting fossil fuel car!), and keeping up with the growing sustainable life culture!"
