Course summary

This is the internationally certified 72 hour Permaculture Design Course. Come and learn with us in the historic setting of Alfoxton House and the scenic surroundings of the Quantock Hills in Somerset. Practical and design exercises on the land will include walled gardens, orchards, social spaces, building renovation, nature stewardship, intentional communities and more. Between the 4 residential weekends you will be able to work on a design for your own situation and receive feedback on this work. Alfoxton is home to members of the Triratna Buddhist Order, and you can join in with group meditations every morning at 7.30am.

The deposit covers basic costs of accommodation and food. Payment beyond this can be made, according to the Buddhist principle of Dana (Generosity), at the end of the course.
