This represents the fire element of Elemental Nature, activating gardens and planting foods and medicines that nourish us. From consultation to garden design, install, and maintenance, I seek to support landscapes providing abundance for humans and our animal relatives. From bees to chickens and robins to owls, a healthy ecosystem is one in which we humans have a niche in the whole, tending to ourselves, the soil, the water, the plants, the animals.
Permaculture design and education is how I offer my fruits, sharing the surplus of creativity and experience. From introductory courses to permaculture design certification (PDC) courses, Ayurvedic Agroforestry, and the Tao of Permaculture, I strive to share wisdom I’ve been gifted as well as see the unity between teachings old and new.
