Permaculture Design Course, Edinburgh 2016. Jan - June six weekends

This 72 hour course will cover all the core permaculture topics – zones, ethics, trees, water, observation techniques, maps, design principles, organic growing, spirals of erosion, community, local money, the design process, practicals etc...

There will be some other site visits during the course.

Each day will be filled with plenty of new design tools, observations, discussions and examples of permaculture but also allow time for reflecting, absorbing and digesting lots of new information. Most importantly there needs to be enough time to get to know the group and share existing knowledge.
