INTRODUCTION PERMACULTURE DESIGN:
We'll be holding an Introduction to Permaculture Design weekend course
14th & 15th April

£55

An introduction to the basics of permaculture design & how this approach can be applied to individual circumstances in order to facilitate a move towards sustainability. This two day 'taster' weekend will create opportunities to actively learn about the ethics and principles of permaculture.

Over the weekend we will cover:

  • Origins of Permaculture
  • Ethics and Principles
  • Design methods
  • Examples of permaculture in practice
  • Observation
  • Practical exercise including forest garden work.
  • An overview of the permaculture network and how to find out more.

Permaculture uses whole system thinking to consciously create productive environments that work with the diversity, stability and resilience of natural systems.

The course is a stand alone course or gives you access onto various Full Design Courses (72hr+)

Course is led by Claire White
