Permaculture Design Certification courses in the Northeast cost $900 to $1400. It is important to honor the fair share of permaculture by valuing and investing in this important practice and the permaculture experience. However, we are living in challenging times where, for many, financial capital is constrained. Therefore, a sliding scale for the course has been developed.
