* Smart nature-inspired design principles

* Rainwater catchment and storage

* Greywater - smart water re-use with plant filters

* Food forests & garden design for food abundance

* Eco-psychology and Regenerative Leadership

* Intentional community design and dynamics

* Soil biology and regeneration

* Sustainable transportation and fuels

* Green business and sustainable economics

* Natural patterns and principles

* Everything you ever wanted to know about plants and soil!



"My experience in the course was invaluable.  I find myself with a

new permaculture lens that I can put on at will, and see the world

around me in a way that I feel leads to making more conscious

decisions and living better in harmony with the earth."

  - Deborah F., Course Graduate



This course will combine critical design skills with leadership,

nature connection, and most importantly an urban focus, building

and exceeding upon the internationally-recognized Permaculture

Design Certification curriculum.  Our programs offer by far the

most complete curriculum of any similar course -- with a huge

focus on leadership, personal growth and community design as well

as green business.



You'll learn how to create sustainable, thriving human systems,

from green houses and organic gardens, to local micro-economies

and communities, using sustainable design principles that are

applicable to every human system, from businesses, communities,

and cities to personal relationships.



"The experiences I have had and people I have met through

Common Circle has been life changing.  On these trips, a

community is created and everyone's individuality is honored,

welcomed and celebrated as you work together each day to

prepare meals, confront issues large and small and discover

how each and every one of us can be the change that we wish

to see in the world." - Marlee F, Course Graduate



Because of our unique focus on Urban and Suburban solutions,

our courses are radically different from most other programs,

teaching permaculture as a design science rooted in nature.

With most of the world's population in cities, we must

meet people where they live with real sustainable solutions.

Starting by learning the lessons from nature with some of the

world's most renowned organic farming experts, we will then look

at how to apply what we learned from the soil and the water to

building sustainable, lasting institutions.



Common Circle Education is the nation's ecological design and

sustainable living school with courses in Oregon, Hawaii and

California; our instructors are some of the most well-known

leaders in sustainability, organics and permaculture design.



We hope you will be able to join us for this incredible,


life-changing experiential course!



Much gratitude,
