Jillian Hovey
Facilitator of
Regenerative Systems Design
Supporting people & communities
to co-create wholistic solutions
for meeting their needs, while
helping to regenerate our world.
Meet Jillian:
For over 35 years, I have been on a journey of listening – to the land, myself, and others – and applying that listening to regenerative responses in the world.
I love my work, and am very glad to have grown the skills to support people to learn about wholistic permaculture design.
Since the early days of my career, I have also found that no matter how much we know about land, we need to understand the human landscapes as well.
My specialty is synergistically combining the land and human ecologies to work from a wholistic frame – and from there the designs we develop are truly aligned and powerful.

Paths of Service
My work is wholistic, with interconnecting aspects.
Here are the main portals for engaging with me:
Land-Based Design
My education is in biophysical landscape, and it is one of my great joys to connect with landscapes, and facilitate the process of developing beautiful, place-based plans to bring people’s dreams to life!
Teaching and Speaking
I have a passion and strength for supporting people to connect with ecosystems (inside &outside of themselves), and to inspire people with knowledge and skills to steward regenerative responses in their lives.
Community Process and Facilitation
Supporting the development of capacity in human processes is integrally important to successful projects and communities – it is an art, that I both practice, and help others to develop.
Coaching and Mentorship
All of what we do in the work is anchored in ourselves. Having a supportive coach or mentor, who can support your projects “from the inside out” can make all the difference in success in life’s unfolding journey.
DEDICATED TO SUPPORTING
REGENERATIVE SYSTEMS

- my facilitation and community process skills to facilitate processes
