    Share Permaculture marketing course

    Get your permaculture stories out into the world

    The Share Permaculture marketing course is led by award-winning teacher and designer, Morag Gamble, who founded the Permaculture Education Institute.

    I have drawn on three decades of permaculture experience to personally design this program for thought-leaders, [pr]activists, doers and those wanting to share widely about permaculture or make a living in permaculture.

    In my 25 years as a global permaculture ambassador, I’ve spent thousands of hours and dollars learning how to effectively share my story.

    To make it quicker and easier for you, I’ve gathered my knowledge, lined up key experts and bundled these practical skills into a rolling year-long program.

    These skills are kind of like a collection of wonderfully hardy perennial seedlings that you can plant and grow quickly to help your project or business find deep roots and strong branches.

    Inside Share Permaculture, you have exclusive access to a series of 12 classes with associated tutorials. Work at your own pace and pick the topics you need to focus first. You’ll also get handouts, worksheets and project ideas.

    It’s these exact skills and tools that have helped me become a globally recognised permaculture voice and gain media coverage in magazines and publications across the world.

    I warmly invite you to join practical program for a wonderful collection of learning how to share permaculture — to make a difference and a living both locally and globally.

    Together, with a permaculture focus and ethic, we will deep dive each month into a different way of sharing permaculture…

    Fair Share scholarships for refugees & youth

    Our Institute tithes funds to our partnered charity, Ethos Foundation, to support permaculture projects globally. We practice what we teach and embrace permaculture’s Fair Share ethic by offering scholarship places to women and young people in the majority world — to those who would never have the chance to access a course like this due to economic disparity. We also support indigenous students, refugees and displaced peoples.

    “The world needs to hear more permaculture stories. I want your permaculture enterprise or project to thrive and be part of the positive change the world needs.”

    Learn skills to make a living doing what you love

    For almost three decades, I’ve generated almost my entire income from permaculture-related education, projects and design.

    That’s aside from a few years as a part-time food politics lecturer at university when my kids were little, a year as an graduate environmental officer in State Government, and some time working a tutor in my teens (flute, saxophone, maths and physics yep, physics!).

    I know the skills we are bringing together here in Share Permaculture are the ‘difference that will make a difference’ in your permaculture program or project.

    These skills will help you to make a real living doing what you love, with permaculture at the core.
