No, I wouldn’t call that rewilding, either, and this would go a bit far afield so if you’d like to discuss it further, you can start a new thread, or you can comment on my last big blog post about it, but mostly, I think this makes for something crucial to think over for yourself, if nothing else: since we know that permaculture can’t scale up to feed a city, or really any community much more than a few hundred, where will the food come from?
As far as an oracle, though, like Willem said, go with the stories that you hear, and if you hear that story, go with it.
