Beyond Organic Design

​Beyond Organic Design (BOD) is a sustainability education nonprofit that develops and implements learning programs, workshops, and presentations for NYC public schools and communities. We provide a powerful lens that enables students to see the world’s interconnectivity, grounding them in a more ethical way of living through permaculture, a design philosophy that teaches us that people are not separate from nature. 

Who We Are

What We Do

Programming for children, teens, and young adults, plus professional development workshops for educators. We redesign educational environments through innovative, experiential learning.

Why We Do It
