A Guide to Yankee Permaculture Publications: 1983-1997
(second edition - 8/25/97)

Since 1983, Yankee Permaculture has published journals, newsletters, papers, and pamphlets on many aspects of permaculture. Our goal has been to fill the gaps in existing permaculture literature, to pull together and/or better express information otherwise not available in useful form, and to extend the development of permaculture as a concept and movement. Much of the material we have published has been in direct response to needs we perceived in our teaching of the Elfin Permaculture Design Course as well as permaculture workshops and lectures.

We believe that these writings of almost 15 years increase in usefulness as time goes on. Meanwhile, thousands of people new to permaculture do not learn about this useful information. Therefore, we have assembled a summary of these writings by topics. We have skipped items of diminished relevance because they are no longer timely. We hope that you find this list useful. Ordering information is located in the Yankee Permaculture Order Form and/or in our Special Order Catalog (Yankee Permaculture Paper #27.) Comments on the organization of the tables below are included at the end of this document.

We strive to make the information below complete and correct. If you find omissions or errors, please let us know. The number of pages indicated for an article or publication may change in some cases as we update information and/or convert documents from typescript to computer typesetting.

Free Permaculture Design Course Pamphlet Series:

The Permaculture Design Course Pamphlet series is based on a certificate
Permaculture Design Course conducted by Bill Mollison in 1981. Mollison gave
the rights of the course transcript to the Rural Education Center where the
course had been held. The Rural Education Center decided it was unable to
publish the transcripts and gave the rights to Yankee Permaculture. The
Center had already arranged with Elizabeth Beyor, who transcribed the tapes
of the course, to edit the material into a series of pamphlets. It was these
pamphlets that we published over the next several years with the aid of many
volunteers. Since we received the material at no cost, and since we
perceived a need for material that can freely circulate around the world, we
placed them in the public domain. We continue to offer the pamphlets for
sale in paper or in electronic editions (floppy disk or via email
attachment). Meanwhile, we will begin placing the pamphlets, one at a time,
on our web page. Starting with Pamphlet I, we will leave each pamphlet on
the page for about six months. Then we will put up another in the series.
In time, you can get a free copy of each one. If you become impatient, you
may order the pamphlets in print or electronic form from us, using our
publications order form.
