The concept of ‘resilience’ – the capacity to ‘bounce-back’ and thrive after negative events – has emerged as a means of planning for and dealing with adverse weather and a changing climate, as well as other potential setbacks (such as a financial crisis or ‘oil-shock’/resource shortages). Resilience-building includes small-scale solutions and larger/long-term designs, ranging from planting hardy and multi-purpose crops to digging swales and setting aside a 'sacrificial paddock'. The course will comprise taught sessions that set out practical solutions relevant to smallholdings with livestock and horticulture.
