Paul Lynch Permaculture Podcast Interview

In October 2024 I did my first interview with Cormac Harkin on the Permaculture Vine Podcast. Its all about my permaculture journey including my life and work story, professional insights, business challenges and how politics and permaculture relate to each other.

Permaculture Vine Podacast Interview

Cormac and I go through alot of topics in a short time. This is Cormac’s video description in youtube:

Paul has combined his interests in nature and design to offer a permaculture design, drone mapping, and orchard care service from his home in Ireland since 2016. With a formal educational and professional background in engineering and design, he brings these skills into his design service. His home also functions as a testing ground for various permaculture methods and ideas, including vegetable growing, rainwater harvesting, stream water abstraction and filtration, drone mapping, fruit tree grafting for nursery establishment, grafting to mature trees, plant propagation from cuttings, seed saving, hot composting, solar PV generation, pig & chicken tractor systems, natural building, forest garden guilds, and sheet mulching.

Paul has completed two Permaculture Design Certificates (PDCs), one in 2010 in Devon and the other in 2015 in Ireland. In 2019, he undertook a permaculture teacher training course (TPT), followed by a “Train the Trainer” course in 2021, which is a State-certified teaching qualification. He teaches in-person introduction to permaculture courses as well as specialist courses on design, orchard care, and hot composting, among other subjects. Paul is on the Certified Teachers Register of the UK Permaculture Association and is available to guest teach on PDCs both in Ireland and internationally. He appreciates the immersive experience and sense of community that can be fostered on a good PDC.
