The 2016/2017 Ultimate Forest Garden Designer's Membership

Registration for 2017 season has begun! Spaces are limited!

I just can’t stop calling it “the Ultimate,” even if it sounds like a cheesy late-night infomercial for the Slap Chop. I’m just that proud of it. It’s everything I wanted but couldn’t find when we started out as forest gardeners over 10 years ago. A program like this would have saved me YEARS of research and failures and thousands of hours of time….

And it’s simultaneously everything I was looking for in a Permaculture training program, but no one offered it – a whole PDC integrated with ecological knowledge and experience specific to my region, and a whole year of practical experience designing and installing Permaculture gardens.

A great opportunity for innovators, professionals and entrepreneurs to design, grow – AND INVEST – in their own edible forest garden paradise while learning advanced gardening and Permaculture techniques and earning their Permaculture Design Certificate.

Everything you need to create your own forest garden, plants, design consultation, classes and workshops to help you along each step, and mentorship and community to ensure success. I personally guarantee you’ll be happy with your forest garden and I’ll work with you to make sure of it.

For those looking to design forest gardens for others, the Ultimate package combines the food forest experience with the Permaculture Design Certificate Course (certificate awarded upon completion of course and design project.)

Often, students complete their PDC but still feel they know little about basic gardening or project implementation, not to mention advanced topics like designing productive ecological gardens. So we packaged this PDC with a complete course on forest garden design and implementation, valuable experience creating a forest garden, and a great collection of plants to get started in Permaculture.

Graduates of our Ultimate program will start their Permaculture journey with a well-designed system, a collection of plant stock and the option of a built-in market for their surplus – our programs.
