My Permaculture Garden - Our Permaculture Life

Welcome to my garden!

This is the film I made of my award-winning garden in the winter of 2016 and has been available on my youtube channel. Join me as I take a wander through my kitchen garden and food forest – sharing design ideas, my low-input garden philosophy and talks about 55 useful plants….

In the not to distant future I will take members of this community on another tour because nothing stays the same – gardens evolve and change and there’s always something new to observe and learn.

Morag Gamble

My name is Morag Gamble and I am living and working a permaculture life. I live an ‘Off-the-Grid’ lifestyle in a permaculture village near Maleny in the subtropical part of southeast Queensland, Australia with my husband and 3 young children.

We designed and built our modular eco-home – with much appreciated help from my family. We are mortgage-free and live simply. Our income is derived from permaculture-related activities. We grow a lot of vegetables, herbs and fruit in the polycultural garden-playground surrounding our home. We collect our water, deal with our wastewater on-site and produce most of our own power.

I love this way of living and I love bringing my children up in this environment. They are Nature Kids and they are learning vital skills for resilience, compassion and future problem solving through our ecological unschooling approach.

I am also passionate about how this way of life can make a positive contribution to society and support ecological regeneration.
