Introduction to Permaculture

Course outline:
This course is open to everyone.

It is being hosted by Tom Kendall from Kendal Permaculture, he will teach an 'Introduction to Permaculture' which will cover Permaculture Ethics and Philosophies, Bill Mollison's Permaculture Principles and an overview of subjects like zones, composting, water management and more, he will also focus on specific questions from attendees.

This Introduction will give attendees a greater understanding of what Permaculture is about. It is also a great way to determine whether attendees would like to continue on their Permaculture journey by completing a Permaculture Design Certificate course, or simply getting stuck into the garden with a higher awareness for soil wealth and permaculture ethics. This is a theoretical course and does not include practical work.
