Why take a permaculture course?
Floods, droughts, storms and pandemics are likely on the rise
Permaculture courses lay out tools, paths and skills we as humans can use to work with each other, and nature, to minimize global disruptions while also improving the health of all life on this planet. This training is all about being the change that brings us toward real and lasting solutions.
