I'm putting out a call for one or two people who'd like to come and live at Anam Cara Forest Farm in the Bega Valley for around three months.

Intensive 72-hour internationally recognised PDC over 12 in‑person days. Learn core permaculture skills: ethics and principles, reading landscapes, contour mapping, water harvesting & management, energy and nutrient cycling, design strategies for both personal and group projects. Unlock a renewed lens: reshape the way you see the world, cultivate resilience, reduce carbon footprint, eat better, and build community.

Join Sam Parker-Davies this January for a 72-hour PDC, taught over 10 days at Zaytuna Farm Eco-Hamlet, home of the Permaculture Research Institute. Set on 66 acres in the subtropical hills near The Channon, NSW, Zaytuna is a world-renowned demonstration site with mature food forests, water harvesting earthworks, integrated animal systems and over two decades of working permaculture to learn from. The course covers the full PDC curriculum, and students can also join the farm team each morning from 6am to 8am for optional hands-on work before class begins.

Are you ready for a life-altering experience, to shift your perspectives, to change the way you think about life and work? Then a Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) is the next step on your journey.
