Three years ago, we were renting, broke, and expecting our first child. After pouring four years of our lives into a permaculture project we didn’t own, we got kicked out. That was rock bottom. But it was also the turning point. Since then, we’ve gone from renting to owning multiple properties—including the permaculture farm of our dreams. We didn’t get there with a big paycheck or traditional financing. We got there through: 👉 Creative financing 👉 Seller deals 👉 Subdivision plays 👉 “Subject to” strategies 👉 And leveraging what we did have instead of waiting to have more It took learning the real estate game and making it work for our homesteading goals—not the other way around. If you’re renting and dreaming of land, food security, and freedom… I’ve got something for you. Over the next couple months, I’m releasing a course on Homestead Creative Financing—everything I wish I knew back when I thought land ownership was out of reach. Curious about how it all works? Drop a comment and let me know your biggest question or fear around buying land. I’ll use your input to shape the course. Let’s break the myth that you need to be rich to live close to the land. 🛠🌱

Hello everyone! My name is Daniel, I’m from Toronto, ON, Canada and I completed my PDC with Bret back in 2020 when it was High Sierra Permaculture. I’m re-exploring this world, and I am glad to see that the community is still going strong! If you’re dealing with this intense heat wave, then I hope you’re staying frosty 😎 Have a fantastic day!

Hi All, I am new here but already loving the like-minded community! I am a child of Africa but have been living in the UK for 10 years and am trying to get back to nature and the land. I am finding it really difficult with all the laws and costs in the UK so if there are any fellow Brits on here, I would love to hear from you.

Hi Team, For April Winners, the prize is going to be a kindle version of Gaia's Garden by the late Toby Hemenway. Its a classic in the permaculture circles. The top 5 in the leader board get a copy! Remember to post, and like other peoples comments.

We pulled all permits and were approved. We are waiting on post office for address to hook water and electricity for now. This happened yesterday. The demo has started on house. All plants and two greenhouses have been removed.
