Before I go into too much detail on the property and what we'd like to accomplish with the design am I in the right place? Is this a reasonable way to find an experienced permaculture designer to help with this project?
We are based out of the Flathead Valley. We've filmed some food forest design / how-to courses with Michael Pilarski in Hot Springs & Whitefish, Montana. He may be a good resource to connect you with a designer. Here is one of his websites if you want to try and get in touch with him: http://www.friendsofthetrees.net/
