Our board members, instructors, and volunteers share one thing: hands in the soil and roots in this community. They give their time because permaculture works.

Meet Our Board of Directors

Sarah spent 20+ years as a geotechnical engineer before permaculture pulled her in for good. She earned her Permaculture Design Certificate in 2022 and now brings that technical background, plus a lifelong love of nature, to her role as EPG's Vice President.
