Working Together, With Nature

Making a better future for us all

For every climate. For every landscape. For every culture. For future growth. For the earth. For health. For regenerative, resilient, abundant lives. For our legacy. For future generations. For all of us.

At Savour Soil Permaculture, we want you to create a vision for your future, be inspired and take action. We want you to feel empowered to reconnect with nature, and work with it, rather than against it, celebrating nature’s abundance while respecting its limitations.

We believe that sustainability isn’t enough. We don’t want to sustain things the way they are, but improve upon them and create a more regenerative and robust ecosystem that lasts for generations. We need to make a change, for a better future for everyone and everything.

Find out how we can help you make it real.

We need to create a vision.

We need to change the climate of our minds. We need to rebuild our inner landscapes. We need a positive, solution-focused way of thinking. We need to be inspired, and we have to act. We need to heal ourselves, our landscapes, our relationship with nature and our culture & communities. We need to learn how to reconnect with nature so we can mimic it in the design of our present and our future.

Hi! I’m Michael, your conversation facilitator, designer and educator with permaculture ethics at my core. I give you and your community the tools and experience you need to create practical, achievable projects to enhance ecosystem health and build more resilient, regenerative and abundant lives.

Michael

Hello, my name is Michael, and I am the Principle and Director of Savour Soil Permaculture. I began my permaculture journey about 25 years ago when I picked up a copy of Permaculture One and the Introduction to Permaculture by Bill Mollison, and did my first PDC with Milkwood and have since done 13 PDCs as a student, 4 teacher trainers and 8 more ‘advanced’ permaculture courses and have also studied horticulture at TAFE. 

I am also the former Adult Education Coordinator at NSCF and am the community gardens coordinator at the University of Queensland. I now apply permaculture’s design principles and ethics to my workplace and community, professional and personal life.

I have also been fortunate enough to apply the design process on over 300 sites over the last 10 years. I have applied the design principles and ethics of permaculture to my personal life and I am now enjoying the wonderful opportunities of being able to apply them to my workplace and my community.

I enjoy learning about the many different facets of permaculture and design and through my learning,  I have also come to love teaching and sharing my knowledge.

My teachers include Rosemary Morrow, Nick Ritar, David Holmgren,  Dan Palmer ,Dave Jacke, Darren Doherty, Robin Clayfield plus many more. I aspire to be as inspirational and practical as my teachers.

I continue to do other courses to advance my knowledge and to increase the value which I may provide in both my teaching, projects​ and consultations.
