The Permaculture Research Insitute

PRI Zaytuna Farm functions as a model farm (in development) and permaculture training facility. Geoff and Nadia Lawton, world-renowned permaculture educators and consultants, lead the project. Much of Geoff and Nadia’s time over the last few years has been spent away from the Institute, consulting and helping set up projects in diverse locales around the world. Seeing the worldwide demand for knowledgeable permaculture consultants and teachers increase exponentially, as fuel and fertiliser prices skyrocket and the effects of climate change, soil depletion and water shortages begin to hit hard, priority and focus is now shifting back to the Institute, where growing the training program will increase the output of quality teachers to help fill the growing need for them.

  1. I was there on the open Day, not having seen the cancellation, like the other dozen or so people present. So the tour got under way regardless – thanks guys! The weather was perfect, the tour interesting and inspirational. So good to see with my own eyes all the things previously watched on the PC.
    I consider Zaytuna a living, evolving lab and school for all kinds of essential living skills.
    All the best. I hope to visit again some time :)
