Review from Gerritt, 2021 PDC

"Megan’s generosity in sharing her extensive plant knowledge builds confidence in the field, her compassion for the planet and people open minds to better ways of living and gardening, and her active passion for permaculture makes her a fantastic permaculture ambassador. I am grateful for Megan and this course. If you are lucky enough to get the chance to take permaculture design certification with Megan Kelley - do it!" - Monica U.

Review from Gerritt, 2021 PDC

"This course will change the way you look at the world, our planet, and your place within it. When I attended a master gardener program a few years ago, I was mostly curious about plants and the science of horticulture. Megan's PDC class builds from that more granular focus to a much more expansive and far more profound level- that being our collective interconnectedness with nature, our food, and the magical, yet delicate, relationships between all living things." - Gerritt S.
