"Everything I have come to understand about the principles of permaculture is summed up in this wonderfully readable and accessible book."
- From the foreword by Brigit Strawbridge of BBC TV's ‘Its Not Easy Being Green’.

Spiralseed is an independent venture founded by Graham Burnett in 2001. Our publications include books, pamphlets and DVDs about permaculture, veganism, human ecology and organic gardening.

Our publications have a positive perspective, and are produced to the highest ethical and environmental standards using recycled paper and eco-friendly inks by the Leeds based Footprint Workers Co-operative. 

We also run regular Permaculture courses and workshops, including weekend introductory events as well as an accredited full 72 hour Permaculture Design Certificate Course in partnership with London based permaculture group 'Naturewise'.

In addition we sell good quality teeshirts and bags featuring Graham's designs. These are produced by the ethical vegan workers co-operative Sunrise Screenprint. We hope to begin selling organic cotton teeshirts in the near future, watch this space!

Spiralseed is an ethical venture based around the core values of Earthcare, Peoplecare and Fairshares, and we intend to reflect these throughout all of our practices and activities. Please note that we will always respect your privacy, and we will never sell, rent or otherwise share any information about any of our customers. If you have any queries or comments about any of our publications, products or courses and events, please don't hesitate to get in touch!


MAKE COMPOST NOT WAR!

Graham's new website documenting the building of the Spiralseed 'garden office', plus a  celebration of DIY reskilliing, handbuilt shelters, low impact structures, shed architecture and tiny houses. Your contributions are welcome!

Graham is part of this exciting new collaborative project in which 8 people from different walks of life are working together to build a public conversation about their individual aspirations for a desirable future.

Organised in partnership with Transition Town Brixton, this introductory weekend is a ‘potted’ permaculture course, looking at the foundations of permaculture and learning about some of the practical tools it offers.
