The Permaculture Skills Center is our partner organization and the location of our main office. It is a 5-acre demonstration site and educational institution dedicated to sharing regenerative land development and management practices. The site was a largely blank canvas of fertile but neglected farmland which has been under restoration and cultivation since it was purchased in winter 2012.  Since then, we installed over 2,000 feet of stormwater harvesting earthworks, four habitat ponds with constructed wetlands, and two acres of rotational grazing pasture lined with on contour hedgerows. We planted over 250 heirloom fruit and nut trees with hundreds of medicinal, soil building, insect-attracting and edible plants as an understory. The site also features one acre of vegetables, strawberries, and cut flowers.
