Now I know it varies greatly but I wonder if anyone knows of the average range a permaculture consultant can expect to make..

Thanks

Hi Kenny:

Yep - lots of variables to contend with here. Therefore I speak only for what I know to be true(ish) here in Phoenix, AZ. Most experienced permaculture consultants here charge $50 an hour. Note that this is for urban applications and rarely are these projects larger than a good sized market garden. Less experienced designers might start off at $35/hr and more expert designers have charged more. I personally don't know the rate for larger farm applications and don't know that any around here have been interested in permaculture methods.
 
You pay for a gym membership and then you pay a tiny ad to chop your wood?
