In this episode of TGL we explore how to learn skills that can save our planet, allow us to create sustainable living and create communities with like minded people! I speak to Nick Ritar, co-founder of Milkwood, an online platform that teaches people all over the world how to create a sustainable ecosystem in our gardens, on our lands, and grow amazing food too!
Milkwood is dedicated to teaching and sharing permaculture skills, for living like it matters.
It all began in 2007, on a farm in New South Wales, Australia…
Kirsten Bradley, Nick Ritar (and later their kiddo, Ash) started off as just a small crew, when they moved to Nick’s family farm in NSW Australia, in 2006. They built a tiny house and grew some food. This somehow turned into a wild and wonderful, permaculture-farm-school-experiment-thing – called Milkwood.
They welcomed students and teachers from all over the world to their tin-shed classroom during those years, and they all learned a lot!
Fast forward to 2020 – Milkwood has a larger crew of educators, facilitators and doers.
Together, they teach everything from permaculture design to market gardening, natural building and mushroom cultivation, to help create resilient and abundant households and communities.
They do this by providing free online resources & offering world-class training – skills that give students the confidence to create permanently sustainable systems.
Students leave their courses ready and able to design and implement a better future for their families, farms and communities.
Head this way to see all their upcoming courses – and get inspired to live life better…
