Welcome to permies Elizabeth! We are glad to have you join us on permies.com! If you need help navigating the permies website, I have created a
Welcome Thread explaining a lot of how permies.com works.
I have requested for the
thread you created to be cross-linked to the Appalachia and Opportunities subforums so that more
people are aware of your desire to have someone visit your
land.
I have listed many resources for gathering the necessary information to create a
permaculture design in the
Help me Start My Paper/Computer Plan thread. There are also many free sources of information for self-training in
permaculture such as Paul Wheaton's
videos,
podcasts, and
articles;
Permaculture News and
Permaculture TV;
Bill Mollison's
Online Lecture Series and
Global Gardener Series; the
Open Permaculture School;
Jack Spirko's
Permaculture Lectures; and so much more.
A certificate in permaculture design is not required to design permaculture landscapes. If you need advice, we at the permies.com
community will be glad to try and help you.
