Events, meetings and courses

Postby Sustainability Centre » Wed Apr 15, 2009 12:04 pm

Permaculture is about working with nature to make a better world for us all. By studying patterns in the natural world, we can derive for ourselves, a set of guiding principles.


Permaculture design uses these principles to develop integrated systems to provide for our needs of food, shelter, energy and community in ways that are healthy and efficient. Through Permaculture design we can improve the quality and productivity of our individual lives, our society and our environment.


In this introductory weekend, we look at some permaculture theory and include some creative methods of teaching. We provide some simple tips to help you start to bring permaculture into your own life and guidance upon where to go next to learn more.


Aims:

By the end of the course participants should:


 Have a grasp of permaculture ethics and principles


 Have an understanding of the permaculture design process


 Feel inspired about how to apply permaculture design in their lives.
