Port Townsend
The Wilder Permaculture Plant Nursery
To support Permaculture education outreach efforts and bring a whole lot
more food to the area, the Institute has launched a "Permaculture
All-Star Nursery" to make available a wide variety of edible perennial
plants. These include the most delicious, productive and
disease-resistant fruits, nuts, berries, fungi, and bamboos. Alongside
apples, pears, peaches, cherries, elderberries, hazelnuts, and
chestnuts, get ready to wow your taste buds with pawpaw, goumi, sea
berry, Chilean guava, akebia, butternuts, shitakes, mitakes, mulberries,
and many other delicious edibles.
The Wilder Nursery is offering a special "Nuts for Neighborhood Fruits"
(or "Fruits for Neighborhood Nuts", depending on your specific palate) -
purchase $500 worth of plants with your neighbors and the nursery will
deliver at no additional cost, assist with installation, and teach a
short workshop about the plants.
You can purchase plants:
- Saturdays at the Farmer's Market
- Sundays at the Food Coop
- By appointment onsite at Frog Hill Farm.
Contact us directly to make an appointment for a visit or design consultation.

The Wilder Institute of Sustainable Design
INCUBATING JOBS IN SUSTAINABLE DESIGN: Recognizing that the Port
Townsend area has considerable talent and design skills already in
place, and that the county has a vested interest in attracting and
retaining youth, The Wilder Institute is planning a comprehensive
year-round curriculum for credit at universities, practical vocational
permaculture skills for high school students, and ongoing continuing
adult education, thereby putting our community on the map as a hub of
sustainable design.
We are actively looking for a site to house the Institute, putting
together private and public partners, and launching a fundraising
campaign in the summer of 2006. If you would like to get involved,
please contact us directly.
