Join us for our annual, hands-on Permaculture Design Course (PDC). Running from March thru October, offering immersive and practical permaculture experiences with visits to thriving local-area homesteads to witness the creative potential of incorporating permaculture in your space. This course is for everyone eager to cultivate a deeper connection with nature, to gain practical food-production skills, and to design regenerative systems for home, farm, and community spaces.
Spanning six weekends over the course of six months, our PDC course is structured to provide ample time for learning, reflection, and implementation to make sure you leave the weekend with confidence moving forward with the information you've received. Each session is packed with hands-on activities, from soil building and composting to winter harvests and planting. You’ll gain practical experience in key permaculture principles while working on real-world projects in a supportive, collaborative environment.
You’ll learn directly from experienced practitioners, exploring diverse strategies for integrating food production, habitat creation, and resource management.
Whether you’re a beginner or already practicing permaculture, this course will deepen your understanding and provide actionable tools to create resilient ecosystems right in your backyard! Between sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to apply what you’ve learned at home, with support and feedback from instructors and peers.
