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 walkabout in the Garden where we can view space through the lens of permaculture to solidify what we learned in the classroom. Be prepared to go for a walk in the Garden.
Price: $42 (VanDusen Members save 10%)
