"Oh my. This recorded PDMC was amazing and exactly what we needed. My husband and I learned so much and most importantly, we now know where to start and what to prioritize. Bill and Megan, you created a wonderful learning environment with these recordings. It really felt like I was in an actual live course with you and the other students. I was NEVER bored. Each session is a gem and built upon the previous. Many Thanks for creating this. The cost is a drop in the bucket compared to the guidance it provided us. It is a relief to have a good plan for our property now.

"Permaculture looks at life squarely in the face and simply asks the questions;
What is?
How do things really work?
There are no sacred cows. Permaculture explores multiple ways that we as humans can create real abundance, security and health for ourselves and the natural world... while similtaneously leaving the planet in much better condition because we were here.
It is honest.
It is realistic.
It is powerful."
- Bill Wilson
