Feedback & Testimonials

Rakesh "Rootsman Rak" has been teaching permaculture and related subjects for decades, however he only started collecting digital feedback for courses since November 2020 (oops). Hence the initial feedback and testimonials are from online courses. More in person course testimonials will appear as he starts teaching in person again post pandemic.

If you have done a course with Rakesh in the past and want to give a testimonial, please contact Rakesh.

"Rakesh's approach to permaculture is transformative. The PDC didn't just teach me about design—it changed how I see my relationship with the land. The mentorship and peer support were invaluable."
