Your Hand Maps the Land

The video tutorial explains the structure of landscapes using the analogy of a fist, highlighting the main ridge and primary valleys. It describes the fractal nature of these patterns and their importance in permaculture design. The tutorial contrasts conventional water management with permaculture's approach, which emphasizes water retention and natural resource accumulation. Practical applications of permaculture, such as integrating human settlements and farming into the landscape, are also discussed.

What is the main Ridge and how does it relate to the landscape?

Explain the concept of primary valleys and their significance in water management.

How does the fractal nature of ridges and valleys impact the understanding of drainage systems?

Describe the differences between conventional engineering and permaculture approaches to water management.

What are some practical examples of permaculture design that promote water retention?
