Permaculture Design & Implementation for Edmonton Acreages
Full design-build regenerative systems for the Capital Region — Parkland, Sturgeon, Strathcona, Leduc, and surrounding counties. From map to earthworks, food forest, and water systems.
Why Capital Region Land Needs Local Permaculture
Edmonton’s fringe and rural belt is full of productive potential — black and grey-wooded soils, aspen parkland microclimates, and acreages that want food, privacy, and lower inputs. It also brings clay pans, spring melt, late frost, and wind. Generic landscaping rarely solves that. Expanding Edge designs and installs systems that fit Capital Region realities: water on contour, cold-hardy plantings, zone planning for real Alberta winters, and phased builds acreage owners can actually fund.
Communities We Serve Around Edmonton
Northwest & Parkland
St. Albert, Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Parkland County, Wabamun corridor — popular for 2–40 acre lifestyle properties ready for food forests and water harvesting.
North & Sturgeon
Sturgeon County, Morinville, Bon Accord, Legal, and rural holdings north of the city — often larger parcels ideal for earthworks and multi-enterprise layouts.
East & Strathcona
Sherwood Park, Fort Saskatchewan, Strathcona County, Cooking Lake / Hastings Lake area — shelterbelts, privacy plantings, and wet-area management are frequent priorities.
South & Leduc
Leduc, Beaumont, Devon, Leduc County, Nisku fringe — new builds and re-planned quarter-sections that benefit from a master plan before infrastructure spend.

Climate & Site Notes for the Capital Region
Short but intense. We prioritize perennial structure, season extension, and microclimates (south walls, windbreaks, thermal mass).
Many sites mix loam with heavy clay. Contour work and organic matter build infiltration; wet corners become assets, not liabilities.
Open parkland needs shelterbelts and edge design. Placement of home, garden, and livestock follows energy flows, not only aesthetics.
