Sepp Holzer's Permaculture: A Practical Guide to Small-Scale, Integrative Farming and Gardening Review: Great Information! - Mr. Holzer's book was fantastic, my husband and I are reading it together, we are almost finished. When we bought our farm, we had a clean slate, the land had not been farmed in many years, we are doing just about everything on it either with a tractor or by hand, including fencing the entire thing in with a "by hand" post hole digger. We have been searching for information on how to make this a "multipurpose" "self-sufficient" farm. A farm with the main goal of being able to help feed the less fortunate & feed our family, we did not want to use any chemicals! We have prayed over our land even before we bought it, that God would use it in a big way! We feel God led us to read this book, we had NEVER heard of permaculture, though my husbands family had farmed for many years & as we have learned in this book, some of the reasons my husbands Grandfather did things the way he did them was for the very reasons that Mr. Holzer farms the way he does!! We are so excited as we plan to build "earth shelters" around our farm, and there is several areas where the "terraces" he spoke of will do so much good for us! The only downfall I have found so far is that Mr. Holzer's book The Rebel Farmer is not available on the Kindle! We are going to have to order a "real book". Other reviews I read said he did not go into enough detail.. OH YES HE DID! The details are fantastic! And he does state in this book that he has even more detailed information in The Rebel Farmer! I plan to order it right away! Thank you Mr. Holzer for sharing your very important information with all of us! And thank you that is was available on the Kindle!! What a fantastic find the Lord has led us too! There will be many many people that will benefit from our farm for years, God willing, thanks to YOU Mr. Holzer!! Our Farm in named aptly "Matana Farm", Matana is a Hebrew word for "gift". This farm was a gift from God and we plan on passing the gifts on for many years to come!! Thank you Mr. Holzer & desertcart & Kindle!! Review: Great information to work with nature and get a bountiful reward with minimal effort - This book is perfect who believes in a 'green' environment, a complete avoidance to chemicals, descriptions on microclimate and macroclimate designing, utilization of your farm animals to do your yard work, farming in very inhospitable environments, and the ability to recover any land from past abuse. I 'ear-marked' a dozen pages for important information that I will forever refer back to and the index at the back of the book is superb for finding topics, foods, and practices described throughout the book, which makes this book efficient and very user friendly. The use of hugelkultur, swales, keyline, ponds, trees, and rocks to create a bountiful yard or small farm is exactly the type of self-reliant infrastructure I am looking for. Once established, this self-sustaining program can easily turn a profit for anyone anywhere. This book has totally changed my outlook on what is a weed and how many of these predetermined 'weeds' actually provide a huge benefit to the garden, bees, birds and beneficial insects so pesticides can be avoided. I plan on reading the book a second time to fully grasp the intricacies of farming in this manner. I now have a much lesser outlook on monoculture farming and how destructive commercial farming really is. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #67,322 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #11 in Horticulture (Books) #37 in Sustainable Agriculture (Books) #69 in Garden Design (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (624) | | Dimensions | 5.98 x 0.5 x 8.96 inches | | Edition | 3.12.2011 | | ISBN-10 | 160358370X | | ISBN-13 | 978-1603583701 | | Item Weight | 1.06 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | March 28, 2011 | | Publisher | Chelsea Green | ## Images ![Sepp Holzer's Permaculture: A Practical Guide to Small-Scale, Integrative Farming and Gardening - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91gqITknL+L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Information! *by E***T on August 18, 2012* Mr. Holzer's book was fantastic, my husband and I are reading it together, we are almost finished.

I now have a much lesser outlook on monoculture farming and how destructive commercial farming really is. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best book on sustainable gardening *by L***O on June 20, 2015* This is, by far, the best book written on sustainable, eco-friendly gardening. It is written in a personal, down-to-earth and very logical way. Everything that Mr Holzer wrote made total sense and aligned with my own observations. This is a very practical book too. I've read (at least tried) many permaculture books, they tend to be very scholarly and somewhat detached from reality. This book is as practical as can be. It does not over-complicate anything I've started implementing many things from this book and they do work in practice. Be warned though: this book is about working with the nature, not about using unnatural shortcuts, so things will take time. But eventually, you will end up with a thriving, stable and productive garden that doesn't require a ton of maintenance. I want to thanks Mr Holzer for writing this book and sharing his knowledge with mankind! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/1524526-sepp-holzers-permaculture-a-practical-guide-to-small-scale-integrative](https://www.desertcart.at/products/1524526-sepp-holzers-permaculture-a-practical-guide-to-small-scale-integrative) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
