About Us

Perennialsolutions.org writes, trains, and consults on perennial farming and gardening systems. These systems of production include traditional indigenous practices, cutting edge agroecosystems, agroforestry, and many other models. All share benefits including restoring degraded lands, soil building, carbon sequestration, improved rainwater capture, and improved wildlife habitat.

Writing Eric is the author of Perennial Vegetables and co-author of Edible Forest Gardens. He has written numerous articles, and a chapter in The New American Sustainable Garden, forthcoming from Timber Press in 2010. He is hard at work on a new book (details soon to come).

Training Eric offers classes, keynotes, and workshops. Topics range from perennial farming systems, to useful plant species, to the business aspects of farming. See Presentations & Workshops for more information.

Consulting Consulting topics include project development, grantwriting, site design, and species palette selection. For more details visit Consulting.

Perennialsolutions.org is a sole proprietorship run by Eric Toensmeier.
