Mission and Vision

  • Our mission is to inspire and enable people to be good stewards of the earth by sowing knowledge of nature-based gardening practices throughout the community.

  • Using natural ecosystems as our model, we show people how to grow food organically and to create landscapes including edible and native plants that regenerate our ecosystem’s health.

  • We envision a region of interconnected backyards that are abundant with food, support the native pollinators forming the foundation of the food web, and protect our wildlife and water resources.

We acknowledge that permaculture owes the roots of its theory and practice to traditional and indigenous knowledge and that the land on which we live and garden is the home of the Wampanoag, the People of the First Light, who have stewarded this land for thousands of years. We thank them for their strength and resilience in protecting this land and aspire to uphold our responsibilities according to their example.
