Learning Permaculture by Doing Permaculture

6-Day Hands-on Training –  May 22-28, 2011
Next Week –At Midwest Permaculture, Stelle, IL  

Last fall, at the request of our host following one of our full PDC (Permaculture Design Certificate) Courses, I stayed on for an additional week to lead another group of beginning students for a hands-on permaculture training that included some classroom time on the foundations of permaculture.  I’ll have to admit, I thought it would end up being a fine week but nothing like the excitement of our full PDC trainings.  I was wrong.

If seeing is believing, then doing is knowing.  We had a wonderful week tackling all sorts of projects during the day and exploring permaculture design ideas and principles in the evenings. The students loved it.  I loved it.  Everyone learned a tremendous amount and came away with many useful and practical skills to begin their own permaculture projects.

From this experience we have created our new 6-day Hands-on Training that we intend to be offering for years to come.  And student who take this training, earn partial credit toward a PDC certificate.
