Limestone Permaculture, in collaboration with Maplewood Permaculture, presents a newly expanded and improved Permaculture Design Certificate—now integrated with a Homesteading Course.

This unique program is hosted at Limestone Permaculture in Stroud Road, led by Brett and Nici Cooper. We are proud to join Brett as co-lead teachers, bringing together decades of experience in sustainable land management and regenerative design.

The Permaculture Design Certificate + Homesteading Course (PDCHC) is an immersive 16-day experience that blends the core principles of permaculture with practical, hands-on homesteading skills. Set on a working permaculture property, this course offers an unparalleled opportunity to learn by doing in a real-world context.

What you’ll gain:

• A deep understanding of the full permaculture design process through live, site-based examples

• Skills to design functional and beautiful landscapes with strong spatial awareness

• Tools and strategies for building resilient systems that support sustainable living

• Practical homesteading skills applicable to both urban and rural environments

Whether you're looking to transform your home garden, design a regenerative farm, or develop a more self-reliant lifestyle, this course offers the knowledge and confidence to help you on your journey.
