Welcome To KoruOra!

What permaculturists are doing is the most important activity that any group is doing on the planet.

- David Suzuki




What is Permaculture?
“Permaculture is an holistic approach to land use design, based on ecological principles and patterns. Permaculture aims to create stable, productive systems that provide for human needs, harmoniously integrating the land with people. The ecological processes of plants, animals, water, weather and nutrient cycles are integrated with human needs and technologies for food, energy, shelter and infrastructure.

Elements in a system are viewed in relationship with other elements, and the outputs of one element become the inputs of another. Within a permaculture system: work is minimized, wastes become resources, productivity and yields increase, and the environment is restored."

- Bill Mollison
We retrofit your existing property (house, garden, farm and community venue) or design new ones based on consultancy and education with permaculture principles which is a holistic system from energy and water saving to better interaction and functionality with the living and non-living elements around you.
Consultancy Consultancy When we consider a new design, we visit site many times to know the micro climate, position of the sun, wind, etc. Our observations are based on mimicking nature to fulfill your needs.
Design Design The reality we face, global climate change, indicates that we need to rethink and redesign our lives. Our designs include integration and cooperation between each living and non-living element. This facilitates connections and creativity while saving you time and money.
Education Education Permaculture is (r)evaluation, and is beyond individual sustainability. Everything evolves, and we must learn new things to adapt to new conditions. Education brings synergy.
During our services we listen to you carefully to understand your needs and also interact with you on what we have learned from you and what can we share...
