Rooted in Nature, Guided by Wisdom

We’re Shannon and Katie — a permaculture designer and a microbiologist — and together we created Natural Omniculture as a living practice of designing systems that heal land, nourish communities, and align with nature’s intelligence.

Our Story

Our journey began with a shared love for the natural world and a deep curiosity about how life sustains itself. Over time, we realized that the answers we were seeking — for health, for harmony, for hope — were already present in the cycles of nature and the traditions of indigenous and ancient cultures.

With backgrounds in horticulture, biology, and systems thinking, we started turning our half-acre homestead into a model of regeneration: a place where food, medicine, soil, and spirit grow together.

Natural Omniculture grew from that soil — and it continues to evolve as a way of living, learning, and sharing with others.

Together, we bring a balance of grounded practice and scientific insight to every project we take on.

Our Philosophy

Natural Omniculture is the art of living in alignment with the full spectrum of life.

We blend ancient wisdom with modern science, permaculture with pattern literacy, to create regenerative systems that grow more than just food — they grow connection, abundance, and resilience.

We believe the future depends on our ability to learn from nature, not just exploit it — and we’re here to help others join that journey.
