Course summary

Stepney City Farm in London’s East End is a working farm and Rural Arts Centre.They embed permaculture principles into the running of the farm and it is an excellent demonstration of a project serving its local community.

The course is a fun, interactive workshop exploring the foundations of permaculture and learning about some of the practical tools it offers.

The weekend offers a balanced combination of theory and practical learning.

What to expect on a course with us.

The workshop will be lively, participatory and thought provoking.
You will learn about:

• the ethics and principles of permaculture
• useful design methods
• observation skills
• forest garden design
• put into practise what you learn on a real life design challenge in a supportive environment

We offer subsidised places for those in need.

Kevin is a very engaging facilitator.It was clear, fun and really interesting and he was able to answer all our enquiries. He shared a lot of concrete examples and there was a nice balance of practical and theoretical. In a subtle and encouraging way Kevin provided the opportunity to explore our relationship with the earth and reflect on own role as stewards and this has left a lasting impression with me. - Sonia Ashby ITP May 14
