How can we grow thriving nurseries that reflect our ethics, the permaculture principles, and the patterns of nature?
Central to our vision, permaculture nurseries provide right livelihood while regenerating ecosystems—yet most growers have to learn business, propagation, and scaling skills on their own.
Let experienced nursery owners and permaculture practitioners show you how to start, grow, and sustain a nursery that aligns with your values. Get the course—let’s grow it together.

Top 7 ways this Permaculture Nursery Course is Unique
1. Focus on Permaculture Nurseries
Most gardening and permaculture resources touch on plant propagation, but rarely dive deep into the full scope of running a nursery. This summit fills that gap—spotlighting nursery design, propagation techniques, and the business skills to make it thrive.
2. Diversity of Plants & Systems
Nursery discussions often focus on a narrow set of crops. Our presenters work with vegetables, herbs, flowers, fruits, berries, trees, native species, and perennial edibles—covering both common and unusual plants. You’ll learn strategies for multiple plant types and nursery systems, from backyard scale to farm-scale operations.
3. Choose Your Path
There’s no one “right” way to run a nursery. Our sessions offer a range of approaches—low-tech to more advanced—so you can choose the methods, plants, and business models that best fit your goals and resources.
4. A Living Resource
This starter pack is filled with insights, tools, and examples that will serve you well beyond the event. Consider it a reference you can revisit as you plan new propagation cycles, expand your plant offerings, or refine your nursery systems.
5. Aligned with Nature’s Abundance
Permaculture nurseries work in harmony with the patterns of nature. This starter pack celebrates that abundance—sharing not just technical know-how, but also the joy, connection, and community that come from growing plants for people and planet.
6. Free Support from Permaculture Nursery Experts
Get peace of mind with 1 year of FREE email support from permaculture nursery experts! Whenever you hit a roadblock—whether it’s propagation, design, pests, or sales—you’ll have a team of seasoned professionals ready to guide you step-by-step. This ongoing support ensures you move forward with confidence and never feel stuck as you grow your nursery.
7. Feel Confident: Backed by our 7‑day Refund Policy
Feel confident with your purchase—every enrollment is fully backed by our 7-day, no-questions-asked refund policy. If you discover the program isn’t the right fit, simply let us know within a week and we’ll refund your investment in full. No hassle, no risk—just the peace of mind to dive in and get started.

Testimonials
“I bought the Permaculture Nursery Course because I wanted to expand my small backyard plant business into something more sustainable and aligned with permaculture ethics. This program exceeded my expectations!
The experts didn’t just share “how-to” tips—they covered everything from low-tech propagation methods to marketing strategies that feel authentic. I especially loved the real-world examples from nurseries working in different climates and budgets. I now have a clearer plan for diversifying my plant offerings and building community connections. It feels like I’ve gained a whole team of mentors rooting for my success!”
– Sarah Whitaker, Vermont
“I’ve dreamed about running a nursery for years, but felt intimidated by the business side. The Permaculture Nursery Course helped change that. The sessions on propagation were incredible—cuttings, layering, seed starts—but what really helped me was learning how to scale without huge upfront costs. The presenters were open about their challenges, mistakes, and wins, which made the whole thing relatable and real.
I walked away with a step-by-step plan to start small, test my systems, and grow into a thriving business while staying true to my values. This program lit the fire I needed!“
– Marcus Alvarez, Oregon
