“The permaculture/earthskills immersion program at Wild Abundance is so much more than just a permaculture design course. This course was personally recommended to me when I was experiencing deep grief about the state of our planet, and lost ancestral knowledge about living in symbiotic relationship with our earth. This 8-month program not only overs all you need to know to begin permaculture design, including real world experience of designing for a local client, it also supports participants to learn deeply about themselves and the natural world around us. I particularly enjoyed learning about wild foods, natural building, traditional crafting, and making friction fire. At the core of this program is the journey of self-growth and personal transformation that is supported by an initial ceremony, followed by individual and group reflective exercises throughout the journey. With a variety of incredibly knowledgeable teachers and learning environments, this experience is always exciting, interesting, and FUN!! Another amazing benefit of this program is the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with mentors and like minded individuals in the community. I am eternally grateful for the experiences, relationships, and personal growth/healing I have received from my time at Wild Abundance.“
