Hello! Thank you for creating this community. I hope these sort of text discussion posts are okay.

I'd like to know - how do people here practice permaculture? What sort of habits have you created? What sources do you learn from?

I'm a suburb-bound person who is constantly trying to bring more permaculture practices into my life, and spaces that show me what others are doing really help.

I've been stealthily replacing the ornamental plants in my gated community here with edible plants of similar size so noone notices. Pineapple tops, pomegranate bushes, strawberry groundcovering, papaya stalks, bananas, baby orange and mandarin trees, etc. Moringa is great too, but I know the drumsticks on those things will litter the property, so I had to plant those just outside the property so nobody gets ticked off at the mess.
