Passionate about lending a technical and artistic hand to the development of a better world. We live in challenging times. We strongly believe that together we can design and BUILD a paradigm far grander that the one we are all contending with at the moment.
We are a design team
My life’s quest in this business venture has been directly inspired by the late, great teacher Bill Mollison, who strived to help steer humanity towards a path of sanity, abundance, and freedom. He left us with a very special book, The Permaculture Designer's Manual! In this book, he provided guidance on how to support localized regions that could meet all their own needs: local, DECENTRALIZED, circular, agrarian-centric economies.

As my teacher and an affiliate member of my team, whom I’ve been mapping for since 2018, Geoff Lawton and I are on a mission to globally proliferate the mainframe design outlined in the final chapter of The Permaculture Designer's Manual. We have the tools, the design science, and an imperative to bring this vision to life. Having been taught by Bill Mollison in 1983 and teaching alongside him for decades, Geoff is uniquely positioned to carry forward his legacy and advance the practice of Bioregional Design!
Here at Pearl River Eco Design, we are dedicating to supporting this vital mission. I have created several automated portions of my workflow. I have created Ai tools. Making the recreation of my maps easy for the average computer user to achieve, we can train millions if not BILLIONS of people prime the basemaps of their homesteads, their community gardens, their food shelter, their church, etc.
We will tackle one climate analog at a time… covering the suitable flora and fauna, building techniques and design strategies for their perspective climate type. THEN, we simultaneously engage in the worlds largest permaculture project ever embarked upon. It’ll make ancient man’s efforts in propagating the ancient rain forests look like child’s play. This is serious, this is big and we are going to bring it!

“The greatest change we need to make is from consumption to production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of us do this, there is enough for everyone. Hence the futility of revolutionaries who have no gardens, who depend on the very system they attack, and who produce words and bullets, not food and shelter.”
