Ecological design helps us to build a better world
For us, that means spending more time in the garden, taking more responsibility for our ecological impact, and grappling with complex social issues as well.

“These courses create a bridge between earth care and people care. I was really struggling to care for myself, while carrying the weight of the world, in terms of environmental responsibility. Heather Jo and the other teachers helped me marry those things in clear, obvious, almost hilarious ways. She made me feel validated in my struggles, valued in my skillsets, and empowered to make real changes.” –Kendra
Our mission at PWG is to elevate the voices of women who are working in the ecological design and organic food arena, and one of the ways we do that is by hosting our own online magazine. We have sections on gardening, homesteading, design strategies, social permaculture, and a huge section full of rants, opinions, politics, and more!
