Designing Systems that Nurture the World We Want to Grow
Whether you're stewarding land, building an organization, or weaving a community together — the work is really the same: designing conditions where life can flourish. That's what I do, and I'd love to do it with you.
Many Services; One Path
The services below are different doorways into the same integrated practice. Some people come with land. Some come with an organization in transition. Some come with a community that wants to work better together. Some come with a deep desire to learn and teach this themselves. Whatever brings you here, there's a place to begin — and a path forward.
Regenerative Systems Design
For land stewards, property owners, and farm-scale projects
Walk-and-talks, conceptual designs, and detailed site plans grounded in integrated design, systems thinking, and generational knowledge of this region. The land already knows what it wants to become — this work helps you see it and take the next step with confidence.
Organizational Consulting
For nonprofits, cooperatives, and purpose-driven organizations
Organizations are living systems — they thrive when their structures, culture, and relationships are as thoughtfully observed and nurtured as any ecosystem. This consulting work helps teams and institutions develop the internal coherence to do the work they actually came here to do.
Permaculture Design Course
For aspiring practitioners and lifelong learners
A full Permaculture Design Course grounded in place, practice, and the ecology of this region. This is more than a curriculum — it's an immersion in a way of seeing that stays with you. Graduates leave with a globally recognized certificate, real design experience, and community connections that matter.
Advanced Practitioner Program
For PDC graduates ready to go deeper
A mentorship-based program for practitioners who want to work at the intersection of ecological and organizational design. Build your practice, your confidence, and your capacity to lead transformative projects in your own community.
Workshops & Events
For community members, organizations, and curious minds
Half-day to multi-day workshops on topics ranging from community governance and ecological literacy to nature connection and systems thinking. These are open-enrolment events that welcome anyone drawn to building a more alive and intentional relationship with the world.
Community Governance & Design
For neighborhood groups, housing cooperatives, and local organizers
Communities that work well together are designed — not just hoped for. This service supports neighborhood groups and community organizations in building governance structures, shared language, and ecological integration into how they live and make decisions together.
Not sure which service fits where you are right now?
That's the most common starting point. Most of the work I do begins with a conversation — a walk-and-talk on your land, a discovery call, or simply an email. There's no wrong door. If something here is calling you, trust that instinct and reach out. We'll find the right place to begin together.
