N. Tayfun Yalcin is a Permaculture designer, consultant, and teacher based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. He is the founder of Towards Nature Permaculture Landscaping, a company dedicated to creating sustainable, regenerative, and productive environments. His work encompasses the design and creation of school gardens, community gardens, food forests, and sustainable agricultural communities.

One of his notable projects is the "Ring of Sustainable-Agricultural Communities," which envisions a series of Sustainable villages encircling the city of Amsterdam. This design includes food forests, growing beds, and community-managed areas featuring flowers, herbs, berries, and edible perennials. The project's goals are to provide affordable housing, enhance people's sustainability & productivity, foster community building, provide educational opportunities, and promote edible landscaping.

Tayfun's passion lies in transforming underutilized urban spaces into socially cohesive, environmentally friendly, and economically sustainable areas. He emphasizes the importance of building sustainable communities rather than just structures, advocating for a shift in mindset towards regenerative living.

Through his work, Tayfun aims to inspire a global movement towards sustainable and regenerative lifestyles, demonstrating that with a change in perspective, new and beneficial ways of living are within reach.

Tayfun’s approach to his work is deeply rooted in permaculture principles, sustainability, and community-driven design. His philosophy extends beyond traditional landscaping, aiming to create regenerative ecosystems that support both people and nature.

 

He believes;

Permaculture is the next level of Human Consciousness!
