-Vandana Shiva

We offer free permaculture courses, traditional and advanced permaculture design certification courses, an online magazine, a large social media network, and a diversity of actionable resources for anybody who wants to grow more food, live in closer harmony with nature, and co-create a future in which we can all be proud to thrive!

Training

We offer a series of free online permaculture courses, a 72-hour design certificate course, and advanced training in social systems design as part of our double-certificate course, featuring 40 female teachers from around the world.

Resources

We curate, create, and collect a myriad of resources, by and for women, to help you learn how to design your home ecosystem, grow your own organic food, and network with your local community to build a peaceful abundance, together.​

Research

One of the most important parts of the permaculture triad is the 3rd ethic: paying it forward. We help facilitate this by publishing an online magazine and offering scholarships to women who want to write about permaculture.

Extra emphasis on social and emotional permaculture

provides a one-of-a-kind education in advanced stewardship, community organizing, and using permaculture to elevate social, emotional, and cultural abundance. You still get top-notch expert instruction on landscape design, but with us you also learn how to gain access to land and work with your community.

Go at your own pace, online format 

means you have time and privacy for your own, ongoing, hands-on experimentation, and you can take as long as you need to give what you're learning a chance to percolate in your mind.

Our international faculty of 40 women

offers the unparalelled strength and experiential wisdom of more than 400 years of combined, hands-on experience.

The tuition price 

​is much lower than an on-site residential course, and with our course, you don’t need to pay for childcare or take time off work to study! Plus, you can come back to the course and take it as many times as you want. No in-person course can offer that. 
5. Help build and support the Permaculture Women’s Guild. Your tuition helps to fund internships and collaborations, free permaculture courses, and Permaculture Women Magazine.

Get an advanced permaculture certificate in
​Social Systems Design.

If you'd rather focus on the People Care ethic, instead of doing a land-based design, you can get a 72-hour Advanced Permaculture certificate in Social Systems Design. Just let us know you want this option when you enroll, and we'll make sure you get a faculty mentor who specializes in social systems.

Audit and assist our online Permaculture Design Course for half-price.

 If you have a PDC or equivalent experience, you can "audit and assist" our course for 1/2 price. This gives you access to the content, but does not include faculty mentorship or certificates, and we ask that you make time to participate in the faculty-student forum, helping less experienced students answer questions.
