Past Workshop Feedback
"The San Diego Permaculture Design Course confirms my understanding of living in natural abundance. Josh's teaching approach encourages and inspires the individual and the community to tap into the bounty, working together to begin to see changes towards a more sustainable way of living."
-Y. Zaidman


"Josh Robinson's course fed (organically, of course) my budding interest in permaculture studies.  The breadth of his class not only set deep roots as a foundation of core knowledge in the area but also led to a communal blossoming of spirit and inspiration."
-A. Hite

    Rainwater harvesting can assure an independent water supply during water restrictions. It is usually of acceptable quality for household needs and renewable at acceptable volumes, despite forecasted climate change.
