Visiting the EcoHouse in Marikina




Yesterday, we visited the Philippine Permaculture Association's (PPA) main office in Marikina. Also known as the "EcoHouse", the 250 square-meter residential lot is the home of permaculture teacher, Bert Peeters, and some of the PPA staff. It was the first time for some team members to see a fully-functioning permaculture design in an urban setting, complete with solar panels, compost toilets, rainwater catchment, a garden, among many other permaculture design components. The team had the opportunity to talk and have lunch with the PPA board and staff. 

We will be back to fully study the site in mid-September.
