Why would anyone want to do a Permaculture course?
Permaculture - how to live with a light heart and a small footprint
We have a course for you if you want to make a better life for yourself, your families and your neighbours. You learn how to make the most of your resources by minimising waste and maximising your own potential. Living ecologically and sustainably doesn’t mean giving everything up! But it does mean relearning the value of nature, following the patterns of the natural world, and discovering new ways of being wealthy.
We use the approach of Permaculture: an “evolutionary” way to design everything around us. Permaculture design can be applied anywhere, at any time, whether you are working in the house, gardening, doing the shopping, looking after the kids, going to work or getting together with your friends… “Permaculture is not about getting away from it all - it’s about taking control of our lives, our individual needs and our common future…” Permaculture design can be applied to any environment, at any scale - from dense urban settlements to individual homes, from farms to entire regions.
