Scholarship Form

We know that money can be a barrier to education, and we don’t want this to be so. We are fortunate to offer a small number of scholarships, from the Earthcare Education Aotearoa Trust, and Permaculture in Nelson Group.

There is one fully funded scholarship, and three partial scholarships which reduce the price to $1495.

In exchange for being awarded a scholarship, you will use the knowledge and skills gained in the course towards designing a project (new or retrofit) which in some way benefits the wider community (or a section of it). Consider now what that might be and let us know in the application form below. If you are successful in your scholarship application, thats the time to make agreements with local organisations about actually doing that, and inform us of your plan before the start of the course. Examples could be: designing a food garden at an elderly peoples home or hospital, designing a food forest for your local school, designing a full permaculture retrofit for a low income suburban household, running an Introduction to Permaculture day, or series of evenings, in your local area.

Complete this form before 30th November 2026 to be considered and we will be in touch.
