Nestled in southeast Calgary is one of the city’s original thriving permaculture projects – our home!

And now we are offering an exclusive opportunity to learn all about it…online in our new Video E-Course!

As engineers and long-time permaculture designers and teachers, we’ve travelled the world to learn about sustainable and regenerative human habitat and have implemented many of these concepts on our property. We’ve been transforming our inner-city home into a permaculture demonstration site since 2009.

We’ve received rave reviews from our popular and often sold-out yard tours, but have not shared much about this project with our online community… until now!
