About Us

The Permaculture Guild is a permaculture and sustainability teaching organization dedicated to teaching the practices of designing environments and building increasingly self-sufficient human settlements.  One area of focus is on high poverty, highly oppressed areas that exist within very degraded environments – these situations can illustrate the power of permaculture solutions and we feel that our future and survival is bound up with theirs.  We organize and administer projects, we teach the Permaculture Design Course and related topics, and we do consultations and design work in Florida, in SE US, in Haiti and at Pine Ridge reservation, SD. We are open to other areas that meet our criteria.  Our paid work pays for our volunteer work in impoverished communities and degraded environments which is our main focus.
