Treehouse Trade School
is a sustainable development, mission-driven organization working to help each other design, build, and live in harmony with our planet.
We are a trade school helping homesteaders & contactors who are struggling with the labor, skills, and resources to complete their project.
LEARN
We are an educational organization, so we usually have students, interns and apprentices working along with us. Our home base is the Seneca Treehouse Project a permaculture demonstration site and learning center for field trips, vacations, and small corporate events.
