The two-day workshop

Permaculture is all about how to design and practice the regeneration of living systems. This 2-day workshop explores how to apply Permaculture ideas, practices, principles, and ethics to regenerative farming. This can be applied to projects of any scale from urban to broadacre.

This workshop will be a combination of information, ideas, imagination, practical exercises and there will be plenty of opportunities for participants to develop their own project design and planning – using the ‘Adapt’ design game and other tools.

The aim is for participants to leave the workshop both inspired and with a sound idea of what their next best steps will be.
