Permaculture Community Hub

Welcome!

Think of our hub as an online permaculture community centre, bustling with activity and like-minded people from around the world. Sit down in the online cafe and chat with other people about your permaculture successes, questions, photos, hopes and dreams. 

Come and talk to Permaculture Association (Britain) staff. Join us at regular live events with a range of inspiring leaders and practitioners. There are also different online courses you can take; study at your own pace, or with an experienced educator. Our online course prospectus is growing all the time, and includes courses designed by permaculture educators. 

Down the online corridor you’ll find spaces for community members working in different areas, for example educators, diploma students and people leading projects and LAND Centres. 

If you’re a diploma student, why not drop into the design share community. Share your designs as you’re working through them and receive helpful feedback. Are you an educator member? There are live events just for you. If you have a practical project, connect with other project leaders around the UK.

Access to the hub and dedicated spaces is free for permaculture association members. Check the members area of the Permaculture Association website for more information. You can also access parts of the hub through our online courses (see plans below). Want to have a look inside? Try our sample course for free today.

I cannot see anyone who attempts undertaking this course going back to a normal life that doesn't include some kind of permaculture. I am thoroughly enjoying all the information included, the videos shared and the reality of what really happens. It's more than a short course and I feel like a "dry sponge". MA
