The Permaculture Book of Ferment and Human Nutrition by Bill Mollison is a lush, illustrated paperback that blends ancient food wisdom with modern sustainability know-how. Within its 278 pages, the co-founder of permaculture explores fermented foods, drinks, and preservation techniques that support both soil and gut health.

This 2011 Tagari Publications softcover is a favourite among homesteaders, culinary DIYers, and anyone curious about self-sufficient living. Detailed line drawings and step-by-step guidance make it easy to turn surplus garden produce into nutrient-dense staples such as kimchi, sourdough, and country wines.

The book’s generous 29 cm format showcases the artwork while remaining comfortable on a kitchen counter. Condition is very good: clean, tidy pages with no prior owner marks, ready for quick reference during your next fermenting session.

A sought-after reference in sustainable agriculture, alternative health, and traditional food circles, this copy offers an affordable entry into Mollison’s wider permaculture library. Grab it to enhance your pantry, classroom, or green-living bookshelf.
