Local Farms & Community

Joel Salatin is one of the world’s leading advocates of farming and food re-localisation. A recipient of the Heinz Award for Environmental Leadership, Joel will challenge participants of this course to design and participate in pathways to relocalisation based on his own acclaimed model at Polyface Farms in the USA, and other techniques and directions from the emerging relocalisation movement.

FarmReady Courses

If you are a farmer, a primary producer, a land manager or in the immediate family of someone who is, you may be eligible for FarmReady which covers course fees, travel and accommodation costs when eligible students attend specific Milkwood Permaculture courses that are FarmReady approved.


Reading List

Prior to attending your course, you might like to take a look at our ever-expanding reading list,a bunch of recommended and practical texts on Permaculture, sustainable agriculture and community resilience.

None of these texts are pre-requisite for our courses, we just like to be able to provide suggestions on background reading, in case you're champing at the bit to get going.


"The ecologically-destructive path we are on is as if all of humanity is in a giant car heading towards a brick wall at 100 miles per hour. Everyone in it is arguing about where to sit. Permaculturalists are some of the only ones who know how to put on the brakes and turn the wheel
