PDX Permaculture's 2026
Permaculture Design Course
Join Drake of UVD and other experienced permaculture designers and educators as we team up with Matt Bibeau of PDX Permaculture to journey through 8 months of permaculture, one weekend per month, at Jean's Farm in Portland, Oregon. This certificate bearing course includes 50% more contact hours than the standard 72-hour Permaculture Institute of North America course and expands on critical content modules such as urban permaculture, social permaculture, placemaking, community building and right livelihood.
Education
Learning is woven into everything we do. Our educational offerings invite you into permaculture as both a practical toolkit and a way of seeing—rooted in relationship with land, people, and place.
Whether you’re tending a home landscape, stewarding shared land, or supporting an organization, these learning spaces are designed to grow your understanding of living systems, seasonal rhythms, and long-term care.
🍃 The Urban Villager
Our on-going publication exploring permaculture, relationship with place, and life in shared landscapes.
Stories, reflections, and practical insights for living in deeper relationship with land and community.
🌱 Consultations
One-time or ongoing learning-focused support for home landscapes and organizations.
Bring questions, challenges, or ideas—and we’ll explore them together through a permaculture lens.
🍂 Workshops & Series
Hands-on workshops and multi-week seasonal series rooted in care for land, people, and living systems.
Learn alongside others and build skills you can carry forward over time.
Education is an invitation into relationship. We’re glad you’re here!
