I really have to comment on the course.The principle is basic and simple but considering ... what has been taught in the academe (at least on my own experience), it was REVOLUTIONARY. Thank you so much for the awakening.

Upon completion of our 4 core Certificate programs students earn the Gaia College Diploma in Organic Land Care. Each of these programs focuses on a unique aspect of organic land care:

All courses are offered on a part-time access basis to allow students to continue to work while studying.

Courses can be taken individually and in no particular order, although we strongly suggest that everyone start with the Organic Master Gardener course.

It is our goal to bring our programs into as many communities as possible. We work in partnership with educational institutions, private and public organization, and even individual educators who see the opportunity to make a significant contribution towards their communities.

Not all courses are offered in all locations. Please check the individual course schedules for availability.
