Should you hire a permaculture designer or simply do it yourself? Both are viable options, but it's important to understand the journey a bit before getting started.

This podcast episode explores the benefits and drawbacks of Homesteading DIY vs Hiring. If you want to do it yourself, we have some really practical strategies on how to streamline the process for your homestead. Not to mention...a few pro-tips!

If you are interested in hiring a designer (or installer), we also offer some practical tips, tricks, questions, and considerations to weigh before hiring someone. In this episode, we'll cover practical questions to ask your designer, how to spot designers that are not going to be a good fit, common pricing concerns, and how to explore mentorship after your food forest is planted.

Whether you are just getting started with a homestead design or you already have a food forest and need to be mentored on how to maximize production - this permaculture podcast episode will give you some gold-nugget tips. And a few interesting bunny trails (i.e. a rant on growing apples in Florida).
