Permaculture Institute

Life honouring permaculture organization.

Founded in 1997 by Scott Pittman and Bill Mollison, the Institute’s work uses education and demonstration to accomplish our mission of training the next environmental and social change makers in the life-enhancing practice of Permaculture Design. It was developed from the work of Permaculture Drylands Institute (PDI) founded in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA in 1987 by several early students of Mollison. PDI focused on applying Permaculture in arid regions worldwide and published the Permaculture Drylands Journal.
