Heya lovely readers, guess what? Our next intake of Permaculture Living is currently OPEN for bookings, until Wednesday 10th at 5pm. So if you’ve been planning to join us for a while, now might be a great time?

One of the great things about this 12-week online course is that if you need to take a break, or go slow, it’s no worries at all! We aren’t going anywhere, and we will support you in the lessons and student forum, answering all your questions – no matter how long you take to move through the course.

I love how the Permaculture Living course can be tailored so much. It’s refreshingly different to typical learning where everyone comes away with the same knowledge. You can really delve into topics and actions that are relevant and appropriate to your life. This was wonderful

We love helping people and communities to thrive and succeed in creating resilience, and this course is the perfect place to do that.

“The best part for me is the way participants are asked to commit to an action each week. The choices are often pretty simple to achieve, but have me thinking more about permaculture in daily life.”

— Lisa, Victoria, Australia

Another great thing about this online course is that it includes an amazing online community where we personally answer all your questions (either in the lessons, or the student forum, or in the live Q&As) so we can help you with just about anything. From fermenting to farm design to ‘why has my plant done this?’ … because yes, we’ve been there too!

Maybe we’ll see you in there?

If you’re curious about what sort of learning is inside this course, we’ve got lots of useful examples for you – apart for the full course curriculum (which you can view here) – it just so happens that we’ve been sharing snippets of this fine course here on our blog, so you can get started, no-matter-what…
