We follow the curriculum set out by the Permaculture Institute with additional topics such as community building, the non-monetary economy, transition initiatives and alternative governance.

​

Our inspiring tour hosts will demonstrate different approaches to managing their properties, gardens and working with local community and how we can incorporate this to better prepare for making our own decisions around future food shortages and disasters as well as managing our environment and ecology.

​

A balance of theory and practical exercises will cater for different learning styles and an inclusive and warm atmosphere will make everyone feel welcome in our course.

We offer a variety of practical exercises and demonstrations that may include composting, brewing compost tea, seed saving, planting, plant propagation and tool sharpening, companion planting, soil preparation, wiser ways with water, alternative technology (cakes for morning tea baked in a solar oven and tea from the rocket stove!) just to name a few.  These can vary on the season and the timetable.
