Our in-person permaculture design courses follow the established international standard of 72 hours of contact time with experienced instructors, including a final group design project that weaves together everything the students have learned over the 12-week course.

This PDC is held in person each Saturday for three months using the Permaculture Institute of North America Core Curriculum. Learn in-person from the Pacific Northwest’s finest systems thinkers at Lost Valley Education Center, an 87-acre living permaculture site.
