Our Origin Story 

 

Founded in 2019 permaculture living lands trust brings together the wisdom of the global permaculture design movement and the strengths of the global conservation movement.   Our core values are rooted in reverence for, and solidarity with, the timeless ecological knowledge of indigenous cultures the world over.

 

We believe that land can be held in trust for community and ecological benefit as a locally-governed commons.

We are land conservationists, permaculture designers and educators, and local living economy advocates, focused on Earth care, People Care, and Fair Share. Our work is within the Eastern Deciduous Forest Biome of this continent, Turtle Island, and beyond.   

 

Please join us in co-creating what the world needs now – a land commons for human ecological design to flourish!
