How do you choose the right plants for a permaculture system without relying on one giant species list? Geoff explains why climate-specific productive plants are only part of the picture and why understanding long, medium and short term support species is key to building a productive ecosystem.

This video is taken from Geoff's Online Permaculture Design Course, where students can bring their own questions into weekly Q&A sessions and explore how permaculture principles apply in practice.
