Using a vibrant combination of theory and practice, our foundation course will introduce you to
- observation techniques
- natural systems and patterns
- ethics and principles of permaculture

The course is informative and interactive. You will leave having designed a permaculture space, putting into practice everything you have learned. Additionally, you will have the grounding to be able to progress onto the full permaculture design course.
