Event Description
Permaculture is a philosophy of working with, rather than against nature, maximizing useful connections between components of the landscape and the resulting synergy of the final design. This overview will cover the definitions, concepts and principles of Permaculture. Participants will learn through lecture, discussion, observation of the patterns and relationships already present in nature, and a basic zone planning and sector analysis activity.
Instructor: Justin Schneider
