Perrine and Charles Hervé-Gruyer have designed a small farm in Normandy that is so productive, it provides a living for five people whilst cultivating just a small percentage of the land, and rewilding the rest. In Volume 1 of Living with the Earth, they describe the overarching principles and influences of ecology and permaculture, and share how they work with Nature to create highly productive systems.
