New Permaculture Certificate Course - San Diego

Project Based Permaculture
Nov. 1-12, 2012 - 8 to 5 Daily
San Diego based

If you learn best by hands-on, project based learning, this course is for you. We begin by visiting several different habitats, exploring nature and asking how her resilience and beauty can inform how we live in harmony with all life on the only planet we have. We will explore native habitats, natural building techniques, alternative energy, water systems, economies and combine this new knowledge into a final design project. We can not fix the old world, we have to create a new one. Join us and become a part of the shift toward a new, regenerative community and planet.

Course fee $1,000. Scholarships, work trade and discounts available.
