These one day foundation Permaculture workshops will give you an understanding of how we can use Earth Care, People Care and Fair Shares combined with a set of principles that mimic natural systems to make best use of time, space and energy while creating beauty and abundance.
Taking a neglected area of our site at the Saffron Acres Project earmarked to be the site for our new LEAF project as an example, you'll learn the tools to create a design that meets the needs of people and wildlife - food, shelter, nourishment, beauty, companionship.
Day One - Sunday 8th February will be focused on permaculture principles and observation skills.
Day Two - Saturday 14th February will be mainly about permaculture design process and tools.
You don't need to book both, but to benefit fully from the second day you will need to have attended the first. Once you have selected a date to book there will be an option to book both sessions together at a discounted price.
These workshops provide an introduction to permaculture, with a chance to go into deeper learning in future sessions, as well as opportunities to be involved in the development of our new area.
Attending the two days will count as 12 hours towards a 72 hr full Permaculture Design Course.
The course facilitator will be Samantha Woods, a Permaculture Association UK certified teacher.
Free places for local residents (LE2 6xx)
£35 per day for non-local residents or £60 when booking both days together.
