Permaculture is a sustainable design system that provides for human needs while having positive effects on the surrounding environment.

It is based on the ethics of earth care, people care and fair share, and provides practical solutions to the global crises we are currently facing.

Permaculture is for EVERYONE, regardless of their education, background, or previous experience.

Permaculture is NOT just about trees, or just about gardening! You don't need loads of land to practice it and it's a design method that can be applied to all social systems.

Wild Food Walk

PDC_casalinho_016

On each of our summer Permaculture Design Courses, we try to mix classroom based sessions with practical. One of the practical sessions Josh and I work together one is often a Wild Food walk, identifying the plants which nature has blessed us with for food and medicine. If you’re a follower of our blog you’ll know I’m passionate about wild / free / foraged foods (see last April’s foraged food’s challenge here), so this is a part of our courses I really enjoy.

Josh Gomez will be joining us again this August for a full PDC accredited by the UK Permaculture Association. See our course listing here for full details.
