Introduction To Permaculture Courses x 10

This course will cover the basics of permaculture design and how this approach can be applied to
individual circumstances in order to facilitate a move towards sustainability. Each two day 'taster'
weekend will create opportunities to actively learn about the ethics and
principles of permaculture in an inspiring and productive urban venue.

Over the weekend we will cover:
• Origins of Permaculture
• Ethics and Principles
• Design methods
• Examples of permaculture in practice
• Observation
• A practical exercise
• 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.
