what is this wild & wonderful world of "permaculture"?! our Earth is a living vibrant being & the ethics & principles of permaculture have been in practice for millennia, but today in many circles the ideas are gaining ground for gardeners, urban planners, farmers, and all sorts of folks who are interested in changing the way we interact with one another and the world around us. please join us on the farm any Wednesday in July & August. each week, we'll be working with specific permaculture principles & demonstrate how the ethics of permaculture work on our farm & in our community. we'll explore "social permaculture" through interactive discussion while teaching, learning & sharing together on practical applications around a farm, homestead, garden, etc.

Woodland Harvest asks for sliding scale donations in exchange for the experiential learning opportunities we provide & to cover food, supplies & materials for workshops. Donations are sliding scale so that we're not cost prohibitive to folks with limited means. With that said, there are expenses to cover, so by donating on the high end of our sliding scale, others who cannot pay that much can still attend these opportunities and basic workshop and food costs are covered. You choose what amount you feel is fair based on your circumstances.
We ask for a $15-$75+ per person per day donation for folks staying for the day and $50-$100+ per person per day for folks who camp and stay for meals on Natural Building Workshop Series days.
We encourage & actively support diverse people in bringing their unique perspectives to our learning opportunities! We welcome those self-identifying as persons of color, LGBTQ+, indigenous people, and folks who have limited finances. We deeply value equitable access to social & ecological justice education. We recognize the need to support diversity, equity, and allyship as essential to creating a healthy world community. We hold space to grow connections between diverse people, building bridges, pushing edges, and inspiring each other to tend our personal and ecological well-being. Families with children, partners & groups are encouraged to attend!
