Hi! I'm Jessica. My family will be entering into full-time ministry soon. Possibly very soon. We will be moving onto a 60 acre piece of land which will ultimately be developed into a working ranch for children who don't have a home or family. Our first job will be to take this very raw piece of land and create/build a farm to feed all the people who will ultimately live on the ranch (80 - 100 people when all's said and done). I am looking for someone who is permaculture certified to help us draw up a blueprint of the permaculture system we will create to suit our needs. We'll be in the Greensboro, GA area. Need recommendations please.

Thank you for your help!

Hi, Jessica! Welcome to permies! Sounds like a noble cause, but... we don't know what kind of recommendations you're seeking. On the left side of the page, you'll see a bunch of little buttons with labels like 'building', 'homesteading', 'ungarbage', and many more. My first recommendation is to start clicking on those buttons, and explore.

Hello Jessica, What an exciting time for you!
I added your thread to our Southern USA forum, since I guess it may catch the attention of locals there. I suggest you have a look round resources too and maybe blatant advertising and jobs wanted to see if anyone there offers the service you want. If not maybe start a new post with more details in jobs offered and see who spots it and replies.

Good luck!

Jessica, welcome to the forum!

As Nancy suggested we have several forums where you might find needed information.

Or you might want to post something to the Building Forum about the building you want help with designing.

The folks on the forum love to answer questions.

Hey there, someone with a PDC might be better qualified for your landscape design but if you need any assistance with layout, grading and drainage I can take a look from a civil engineering perspective, just send a PM.
