I’ve just discovered that apparently there’s a difference.
And I’ve just discovered that I’m one who confused the two. One is being completely isolated – trying to provide everything you need , the other is “taking responsibility” for providing the things you need. And permaculture self-reliance is, of course, doing that in a sustainable manner.
This is a great lens. It’s timely in that I’m planning a serious redesign of not only the garden, but of our whole lives.
(Haven’t mentioned that to the rest of the family yet…YES! You will eat my vegetables…)
