Matthew Trumm is a permaculture and regenerative systems educator, designer, consultant speaker / lecturer, andlandscape contractor (Lic#1126298) from Oroville California, in Butte County. Since Matthew started to study Permaculture in 2011 he has pioneered countless local Permaculture based initiatives which all dwell in the ever expanding web of projects and businesses under the umbrella, Treetop Permaculture. Treetop specializes in Education, demonstration, and consultation of Permaculturedesign and ecosystem restoration. Matthew received his Landscape Contracting license in 2024 to put more permaculture designs into action. 

His projects include a K-8 school garden program at Hearthstone School in Oroville, CA, a cutting edge micro local co op food box program (Coop-a-Box) www.coopabox.com, as well as founding The Camp Fire Restoration Project www.campfirerestorationproject.org , a non profit organization that helps educate and provide resources to restore the areas that were devastated by the deadly Camp Fire in Butte County. In 2019 CFRP created the 1st ecosystem restoration camp in the US. and the first mobile permaculture based disaster response camp model in the world. In 2020 Matthew lost his home, farm, and forest in Berry Creek, Ca in the #northcomplexfire and immediately started work to regenerate the land, which officially began The Treetop Eco Camp and Permaculture Research Institute where he hopes to document, and research Permaculture based design for living in a post fire ecosystem. 

Matthew’s work has inspired and influenced many projects throughout California and has helped get permaculture andecosystem restoration design solutions adopted into public policy.
