Permaculture Roots 1 – Intro and Food

Permaculture Roots 1 – Intro and Food

Far more than a system of gardening, Permaculture teaches a way to harmoniously integrate people and ecosystems in a way that regenerates both. 

Deeply indebted to the ancestral ways of old growth cultures across earth, Permaculture was consciously created in the 1970s as a response to living in uncertain times.

Permaculture moves us, one step at a time, from consumers to a people able to meet our needs through partnership with the land. We learn that the earth is already in each moment creating everything we need to thrive. If we re-learn how to tend those gifts, there can be enough for everyone to live well.

Through Permaculture design, humans cease to be the cause of ecological destruction and become a vital part of the healing of the land.

We learn to live lives that are more resilient to change, healthier for the land and our bodies. Every step we take considers the effect on the greater family of the wild and the generations that come after us.

By choosing to work with nature's intelligence, we create low-input gardens, homes, and ways of life that benefit from the support of natural forces instead of being stuck in a fruitless struggle against them.


In these times of tremendous challenge and change, our hope is to pass this bundle of seeds called Permaculture into as many hands as we can.

We're partnering with Living Arts Collective and Silver Branch Permaculture to bring this 5-part series of one-day Permaculture workshops. They're designed for both beginners and people who have practiced some Permaculture on their own.

Roots 1 - Intro and Food

  • Permaculture 101 - What is all this anyway?

  • Tuning Into (and Turning Into!) Land

  • Building Good Soil and Creating Your Own Soil Fertility

  • Growing Food in a Permaculture way

  • Gardening in Times of Climate Change

  • Foraging

  • 15+ plants for the Permaculture Garden

  • Answering Your Permaculture Questions

Sign up for May 17 Workshop (or whole series) here

What You'll Learn:

Every workshop will include opportunities to connect with nature and our senses, learn Permaculture design, answer your questions, and meet other amazing humans interested in Permaculture.

Coming for any one workshop should be a complete experience by itself - and, if you come for the whole series, you can count on receiving the beginnings of a deep permaculture education!

All workshops will also have an optional evening portion around a fire to connect and share in each other's stories, songs, and plant and animal knowledge.
