Hello! Thank you for creating this community. I hope these sort of text discussion posts are okay.

I'd like to know - how do people here practice permaculture? What sort of habits have you created? What sources do you learn from?

I'm a suburb-bound person who is constantly trying to bring more permaculture practices into my life, and spaces that show me what others are doing really help.

I also live in the suburbs. I have a very small garden where I initially took the stone coverage away, added some compost to mostly sand, and then planted out a number of species from a local permahero. Now it mostly lives by itself, with a lot of cool insects in it. I also have a small raised bed where I put some wood, charcoal and compost, and now plant stuff with varying success. But the birds love the living soil. Am dreaming of buying more land one day.
