Permagarden: Technical Checklist & Guidance

This is a monitoring and management tool for enhancing the implementation of the Permagarden method. The checklist is based on the Resilience Design for Agroecological Production Minimum Standards and is focused on six core elements of the Permagarden approach that are readily observable and should be monitored frequently: resources, design, water, soil health, biodiversity and protection.

This guidance is tailored to agriculture advisors, extension agents, and other practitioners that are supporting individuals to implement the Permagarden approach. The checklist can also be used by the permagarden owners themselves to manage and improve their gardens.
