Introduction to Permaculture Design Course

Using whole-systems thinking, permaculture is the conscious design and maintenance of productive ecosystems based on applying principles that reflect the diversity, stability and resilience of nature.  

​

This 20 hour introductory course will take participants through the foundations and theory of permaculture, work through some of the design exercises and apply the concepts to a collaborative design project for the Strathmore High School Community Greenhouse space. 

 

The outcome of the course will be a co-created permaculture design for future installation in the space.
