Welcome to Regenerative Families! 🌱
Are you ready to reconnect with the Earth, your family, and what really matters?
Our Regenerative Families Class is more than a course—it’s a shared adventure. Over 10 live sessions, your family will discover how to care for the land, grow food, and create thriving systems that benefit both your family and the planet.
👨👩👧👦 Why Families?
Because healing the Earth isn’t something we can do alone. Families have the power to make real, lasting change—together. That’s why we make it easy for families to participate for the price of one student.
What You’ll Learn:
🌱 Healthy Soil, Vibrant Life:
Ever wondered what’s happening beneath your feet? You’ll learn how soil works, why it’s so important, and how to bring it back to life.
💧 Water Wisdom:
Discover the incredible journey of water and how to protect and manage it—from your backyard to your community.
🌳 Food Forests & Gardening:
Learn how to create a garden that feeds your family, supports pollinators, and mimics nature’s most abundant ecosystems.
🌍 Taking Action:
Explore ways your family can make a difference, from starting your own projects to connecting with larger regenerative movements.
Permaculture allows the true abundance of our Earth to flourish and nourish future generations with guidance from past generations! Connecting with nature through observation and project-based learning as a family is a valuable investment lasting a lifetime!
The foundation of permaculture is the three ethics of Earth Care, People Care and Fair share. Within that there are 12 guiding principles. The principles guide us whether we are learning about how to grow food for our family, bring art into our lives, or learning to lead a more regenerative life.
We will be using these principles as the pattern of our project-based classes every week. Each engaging class will be accompanied by suggestions to bring what we are learning into practical action for your family throughout the following week. There will be opportunities for each family to present what they have been learning back to the class which is educational and inspiring for all.
How It Works:
💻 Live Online Classes: Accessible from anywhere, these interactive sessions are designed for kids and adults to learn side by side. We recommend this class for ages 6+ however, we welcome younger siblings to join in with supervision!
We encourage the entire family to participate in the class so that the course work can be done as a family collaboration. This family learning environment is where we have observed the richest outcomes.
The recording link will be sent after each live class for those who cannot join live.
🌿 Hands-On Projects: Try out fun and practical activities at home that bring what you’ve learned to life.
🎉 Family-Friendly Pricing: Bring the whole family for the cost of one student. We’re happy to run this class privately for groups. 15% off for each family sent to us referred by you through our Fair Share Program. Just have them share your name during registration.
🤝 People Care Program: Contribute during checkout to help another family join the class—building connection and making education accessible for all.
This course is being led by Annette Argabright and Chanel Smith, certified permaculture designers and educators who specialize in engaging children in permaculture.
