Welcome to Terra Perma

If you live in the metro Atlanta area and feel drawn to the
notions of a sustainable lifestyle we invite you to join our
journey towards a better future.
We are exploring our resources and learning new ways to
be connected through our actions. We’d love your input
and presence as we build TERRA PERMA.

We seek to bridge like-minded businesses, groups,
organizations and individuals. To empower all of us to
make the right choices and to recognize their part in the whole.
We want to give ourselves a more cohesive and stronger voice
in our existing regenerative culture. So we become capable to
tackle important issues which our generation will surley face
in the coming years. Since our governments are becoming
less and less reliable in being able to protect and provide,
we need to figure out ways to become self sustainable.

Strengthening our communities by building an infastructure
within ourselves is one way we hope to do this.
By shopping locally, eating locally, and participating in
local events we help keep our money in our own communities,
and in our own lives.

Currently we are working on forming a permaculture umbrella
group for the southeast combining the concepts of
socially and environmentally conscious practices, local networking,
and local economies.

LATEST NEWS

The last week in February was a great hit over here at Terraperma where we commenced on building our tire walls.  We got our tires for free from local tire shops, thank you Cambell’s and Cherokee Tire!  During the week our friends Mike and Geoff helped us build a seven foot tall recycled tire wall, and then on Saturday at our work party we began our second wall and will shortly have detailed instructions on how to make your own.  Thank you for all of you who came out and all of you who helped!  Ya’ll Rock and we couldn’t have done it without you!

THE WALL

Tire wall

For the rest of March we will finish putting up our tire walls to help terrace our land.  The tires were a free resource but they come with their fair share of pollutants.  Here at terraperma we are devoted to teaching people not only how to recycle abundant resources, but to bioremediate the pollutants that come from these resources.  This is why our next work party on (Saturday March 27th from 12-4 pm) will be about what we can do to bioremediate these toxins, with mushroom innoculations  and microremediating bunker bags.
