Nicky and Dave Schauder are passionate about helping families grow their food.Their garden journey began when their kids were diagnosed with “failure to thrive” due to multiple food allergies. Because of these health issues, they felt called to grow organic at home and have supplied 25% of their fruits and veggies from their tiny townhouse backyard.Their mission is to help families grow their food, and medicine and find God through ecological gardening.They do this primarily through their Permaculture Gardens at permaculturegardens.org, a website filled with garden resources such as free webinars, blogs, and “Grow-It-Yourself/GIY” – a garden membership program that helps simplify and strategize backyard garden success!Their most recent project is SAGE: A Permaculture Garden Designer recently launched on Kickstarter!Permaculture Gardens has received the “Most Sustainable Brand” award at the Green Festivals. In addition, Nicky & Dave’s work has appeared in the Huffington Post, Permaculture Research Institute - Australia, Mother Earth News Fair, and Green America.org.They speak about permaculture in small spaces at health expos, university symposia, podcasts, and local gardening clubs. They also volunteer at their neighborhood Title 1 school, running after-school garden programs for kids.Permaculture is best known for maximizing production in extensive agricultural lands. But because the rules for working with nature are universal, permaculture principles can help you grow your food even if you have a tiny backyard or garden plot!
