About Alaska Permaculture
Our mission is to provide high quality cold climate permaculture courses and workshops for all Alas
We offer Permaculture Design Certificates (PDC) to those who complete a 72+ hour Permaculture Design Course taught by Certified Alaskan Teachers. Occasionally we will offer introductory classes, seminars and workshops as well.
Graduates of AP courses will receive an Alaska Permaculture Certificate and will be eligible for 50% off future AP courses when there is room. AP is also currently accepting new candidates for Permaculture Instructors. If you would like to be considered, please contact Cindee at: alaskapermaculture@gmail.com
Cindee Karns, M.Ed.
ACCPI Co-Founder, Instructor 2010 PDC graduate, 2012 PDC Teacher Certification
Cindee lives in and teaches workshops at the only Bioshelter in the state, an awarding winning home that recycles all of its water and waste. She has certified over 50 Alaskans in Permaculture Design by teaching many Permaculture Design Courses with some of the top Permaculture Instructors in the nation. She is working on her national permaculture certificate through Permaculture Institute of North America.
Cindee grew up in Fairbanks and married the kid down the street. Together Curt and Cindee have lived and gardened in Wrangell, Alaska; North Pole, Alaska, in SouthCentral and now back in the hills above Fairbanks—all very different places in the same state. She’s a retired 8th grade teacher, who enjoys designing, starting new projects, and spending—whatever time is left over—-reading on the rocket mass heater bench in the greenhouse.
