Hello and welcome!
I’m Annette — a permaculture diploma tutor, certified educator, designer, project manager, and long-time homeschooler (20+ years) based in North Texas, USA.
I walk alongside apprentices on their diploma journey — as a guide, mentor, and steady presence — supporting the shift from learning permaculture to living it in a deep and embodied way. To me, the diploma is more than a portfolio of designs; it’s a transformative path where your skills, vision, and connection to the Earth grow together.
With experience in permaculture design, teaching, and cultural emergence, I help apprentices bring their visions to life through intentional design, reflective practice, and grounded support. My approach is compassionate and empowering, meeting you where you are and honoring your unique voice, pace, and story.
Through our work together, my aim is to nurture confidence, clarity, and connection — deepening your relationship with the Earth, your community, and yourself as you grow into your role as a designer and change-maker.
