We often get enquiries about where to find professional permaculture services like designers and landscapers because these small businesses usually don’t have a big budget to advertise. And people are not always aware of other volunteer organisations such as produce swaps, community gardens, food co-operatives, etc. In response to this need, we have launched the first ever online Permaculture directory for the Central Coast.
What is the PCC Directory
The PCC (Permaculture Central Coast) Directory will list Permaculture-related businesses and community groups on the Central Coast. We will also include our own local and special interest groups as PCC (Permaculture Central Coast) is growing and it’s hard for members to keep track of everything we do.
How to access the Directory
The Directory resides on our website and can be accessed from any page with the Directory link in the top menu. The most convenient way to browse the Directory is to explore categories like you would do with the Yellow Pages. There is also a comprehensive search page to find entries by name, suburb, etc.
How add a business listing to the Directory

The cost is $20 per year on top of your regular PCC membership. To get free access for the 1st year, use the FREEDIRECTORY2022 coupon code at the Checkout. This free offer ends on 30/06/2022.
