We highly recommend their services – J&M
We found Organic Motion to be very thoughtful and caring in their approach to us. The design for our garden went far beyond our expectation. Their knowledge of plants in relation to their surroundings and nature was insightful. The in depth detail of the garden design showed a creative and well thought out plan. We feel that Organic Motion connects us to family orientated values, good will, sincerity and great care and attention. We felt looked after and trust in their professionalism to making sure everything is taken care of. We highly recommend their services.

“Thank you to the Organic Motion team for giving us the confidence to bring our vision to fruition. The final design is now displayed proudly in our lodge and the gardens, composting system, worm farm and fruit trees are all going great! It has been a great learning curve and we hope that we are now able to inspire our visitors to make sustainable choices in their own homes and communities.
Thank you organic motion as without you this would not have been possible!”

A peaceful sustainable existence
We recently engaged “Organic Motion” to do a concept design for our property. We chose them for the cumulative knowledge they have with permaculture, a system we embrace. Organic Motion has given us a comprehensive concept design for our property, giving us the tools to work towards a peaceful sustainable existence. – Jen & Rob
Its been a pleasure of working with Organic Motion
Koah Sports and Social Club has had the pleasure of working with Blake and Tonielle of Organic Motion, on a master planning process for our community facility and grounds. Tonielle designed, implemented and facilitated an excellent engagement process over three sessions open to the whole community, where ideas, values and concerns were identified, condensed and expressed in new plans for the Koah Hall and Musumeci park. Blake then developed a site and landscaping plan for the grounds which harmonised old and new elements, site aspects and constraints, into a vision which is practical and creative in equal measure.
– Sarah Rizvi (President of Koah Sports and Recreation Club)
The amazing documentation and research was a masterpiece!
The amazing documentation and research provided is a coffee table book for us to show where it all started and the great response delivered in all aspects include edible, low water use, recycled materials, fun landscaping, which was a masterpiece by Organic Motion. We have since recommended this design service to our clients as the level of planning design, thought and tailored approach to our specific goals needs saves 1000 of hours of research that would be needed to achieve in half of what Organic Motion has achieved for us.

I Thoroughly enjoyed the “Incredible Edibles” workshop
I Thoroughly enjoyed the “Incredible Edibles” workshop presented by Tonielle and Blake, … lots of great info and delicious food. I definitely recommend this workshop and if you can’t make it I suggest you jump on their website and buy their guide book, not easy to find guides for our tropical climate, and this one is a treasure.
– Jenny, President, Permaculture Cairns Inc (2016)
Thank you for such a great workshop!
Thank you for such a great workshop! I really enjoyed the food and drinks; they were abundant, original and charged with flavor. I was very impressed by the diversity of edible plants in your garden, and the different recipes there are to enjoy them. You helped me realize that it is possible to transform my small garden into an edible patch, and that food is a lot more than nutrients and taste!
– Mel Gomez
Loved the intro to permaculture course!
Loved the intro to permaculture course. Really enjoyed the way the OM crew presented the course. They made learning fun by doing lots of group activities and provided a supportive environment where people felt comfortable sharing ideas and experiences. Tonielle, Blake and Jay are very knowledgeable and passionate about permaculture and their enthusiasm is infectious. Great work guys.
– Tony Styles
Well that was an incredible weekend!
Well that was an incredible weekend! Thank you, thank you to one and all. Met some great people and had some inspiring conversations with many.

They helped us think through what we wanted
Organic Motion came to our place early in 2016 to do a Permaculture Design for us. They helped us think through what we wanted, and pointed out some very obvious things, particularly in relation to Permaculture Zoning, that helped us get much more clear on where things needed to be. They also had lots of great suggestions in relation to composting strategies, to help us close the loop and stop the escape of valuable nutrients from our system. Tonielle shared a tone of resources and ideas with us about where we could look for things we need to source from out in the wider world. And Blake was awesome with all things Mapping and Technology.
Thanks Guys! I wish we lived closer so we could continue to connect and share ideas on a regular basis.

Organic Motion understood our needs immediately
We are involved in a eco-oriented property development, and used the services of Organic Motion recently to create a Sustainable Design Guide to provide to new buyers. Organic Motion understood our needs immediately, and developed a resource which met them well. They display strong commitment to their work and follow through with professional design skills and tropical permaculture expertise.
– Piers Freeman, KoahVille
We were extremely impressed with the outcome
Blake at Organic Motion designed our food forest and kitchen garden for our new property. We were extremely impressed with the outcome. Blake visited our site and then designed an extensive, customised permaculture plan for us to implement. Everything was considered, from soil type to plant selection and planting timetables for the tropics. We are able to refer back to our custom plan at different stages of planning and planting and it has been invaluable as it draws all the information and research we would have had to do into one place. The design includes everything we will need to complete our project and was well worth undertaking. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Organic Motion to others.
– Alix and Dane, Townsville.
Tonielle and Blake from Organic Motion were exceptionally easy to deal with
Tonielle and Blake from Organic Motion were exceptionally easy to deal with from the very first phone call. They attended at our property to discuss our requirements and listened to our desires to turn our suburban house block into an edible landscape while keeping a neat and tidy “suburban” feel to the property. They provided a draft plan which we worked on together to tweak ever so slightly and that plan was presented in such a manner that the “manual” was a great reference tool and visual aid which helped to bring our dreams to life. They showed us the pathway to implement as many permaculture principles into our yard as possible while working within the constraints of current “suburban standards” for an aesthetically pleasing yet still abundant edible food forest. I would highly recommend Organic Motion to anyone wanting to transform their land and their lives for the better.

It was a very inspiring day for me
It was a very inspiring day for me – before the rain set in I managed to get a range of greens, rhizomes and herbs packed in along a section of the school food garden that we call ‘the jungle’. We had recently chopped and dropped bananas, QLD arrowroot and sweet potato, so it was just waiting to be planted out. I’m looking at the garden with new eyes! Highly recommend the workshop”
– Juliana (teacher) Mt Molly school.
