This is a uniquely creative and flexible advanced permaculture design course. Our participant driven, self-directed program can be done from a distance and includes optional in person meet ups in Roberts Creek on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia every season for 30 months.

As a social permaculture vehicle for carrying us through this time of transition, the course offers a dynamic learning pathway which will evolve your ability to design, practice, consult and teach using the permaculture toolkit.

GATHERINGS

There are optional seasonal in-person meet ups in Roberts Creek, BC and includes tours of gardens, farms and forest locations in all seasons. People will have a chance to share with the group what they are up to and have teaching practice to lead an activity if they choose.
