Nonprofits depend on donations, sponsorship for events and funders for our day to day activities.

If you enjoyed any of our programs please consider sending funds our way.
All funds go to our continued commitment to community.

We provide support to members and the wider community through our partner led programs, our think tank with our council of elders sharing innovative ideas with local groups and municipal workers.

We pride ourself on our Permaculture approach and are led by Chief Toyin Coker aka Chi Ef on FB who really wears all hats. Sometimes hands are short and you will see Chief running programs, driving volunteers, collecting donations and speaking at local school. Through all they got going on in their personal life Chief never stops doing and being available for community.

We hope to raise funds this year to ease the financial load as often Chief covers when we are short. No matter how many times the accountants ask them to stop lol.
It's a true labour of love for them so we all just try to support Chief as much as possible. It's the least us active members and volunteers can do.

You can support in any of the following ways

1. Leave a testimonial, comment or like on our page based on you experience and let the community know what we do in your own words.

2. Send a donation. Cash (message us and set up a time and location and a volunteer will meet you), etransfer ([email protected]), cheque (payable to The Permaculture Project GTA)

3.Become a member $100/ year and enjoy all the benefits of membership including good, clean organic food grown by our volunteers at the Coker Homestead and our local gardens.
4Volunteer your time. With so many ways to get involved you do not need a green thumb to get involved. It takes a village!
Just let us know your interest and we will match you with the perfect task.

We work with all ages and all people, so if anything just know we are here and dedicated to community.

Happy Wednesday Iroquois Falls, Matheson, Cochrane and Timmins!
