Testimonials
“I had the chance to study Permaculture under Warren Brush in Joshua Tree at the Harrison House. What an incredible opportunity, and one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. As humans we can play an important role in nature by designing regenerative systems that nourish us and improve the environment and our communities. That’s what I want to do.”
– Justin Moore
“I’ve taken a number of PDC’s and permaculture related workshops over the years. This was one of the most powerful.”
– Jill Giegerich
“I am still reveling in the wonderment of the past two weeks. Warren’s special way of teaching will stay with me forever.”
– Julia Ehret

“
To learn permaculture is to become literate with the art (patterns) of nature and as humans to learn to live more regeneratively within her systems.”
