About Kristofer Edler
Kris is the Founder of PermacultureFX and has been practicing regenerative agriculture for 20+ years. Edler has lived in multiple growing zones from the snowy winters of Northern Michigan to the extreme seasons of Kansas City. He was a founding teacher of a private school in Kansas City, which taught permaculture to K-12 students on an 18-acre property. As a business owner, his former wedding venue also practiced permaculture with community garden connection and compost production from post-event food waste. Currently, Edler is actively practicing and teaching permaculture in Central Florida and has a background in regenerative agriculture, syntropic systems, and silvo-pasture farm and pasture management. He is a certified instructor and was trained by Geoff Lawton (and other permaculture patriarchs), and is especially passionate about making permaculture principles palatable for those in suburban settings and enjoys finding ways to integrate sustainable practices into many diverse scenarios. Over the last few years, he conducted hundreds of property consultations across Florida to help new homesteaders get started on their land. All this to say – Edler is a nerdy dirt ninja with a passion for humans, feathered friends, and all things food forests.

More About PermacultureFX – Florida Permaculture Designer
Perma…what?! Siri can barely spell it and Google seems to always bring up all the weird hippie websites. So, what is it? Well, if you’ve heard the buzz word “permaculture” lately, it’s time to learn more about PermacultureFX.
Simply put…
permanent + agriculture = permaculture
Permaculture is a system of thought that teaches us to see the world around us in a way which leaves it better than we found it. It’s more than a movement, it is a mindset which combines the best of science and nature.
In an age where there is both a resurgence of the old fashion ways of our grandparents and a continual flow of new scientific research regarding earth-care, many individuals are trying to figure out how to find balance between these two extremes. The good news is that it is possible to wear a tie by day (and be a responsible adult) and then play in the dirt at night and on weekends. It is becoming a “thing” to both be a successful professional AND someone who organically cares for the earth.
Whether or not you believe in global warming isn’t the point. It doesn’t matter if you are some end of age, dooms-day-prepper OR an urban gardener just wanting fresh basil and tomatoes. Wherever you are in the spectrum, there is a place for you here because caring for the earth and for our bodies is something important to all of us. It is essential for living well and in a healthy community.
Permaculture in action
In the heart of any growing and thriving city lies the communities of families, homes, and backyards. Some of these life-blood communities consists of small urban porches, others are in the suburbs on a 1/4 of an acre, and some are just outside of town on rural homesteads.
