World renown permaculture designer Darren Doherty leads a full day workshop in San Diego on March 6.

Applying the Regrarians Platform to project design and development ensures that production landscape enterprises, be they startup or established, have a critical, methodical and thorough process that is typically lacking in other methodologies.

One of the best ways to learn how to apply the RP, is to apply the RP! This day long #PV3 workshop will do just that, using 2 interactive and participatory case studies that are of a scale common in production landscapes.

Included in this workshop are a digital copy of the 1.Climate and 2. Geography chapters of the Regrarians Handbook along with access to a range of planning and design presentations, spreadsheets and other documents prepared by Regrarians Ltd.

Workshop Program

Morning:

Professional application of the Regrarians Platform to project design and development
Site A — smaller scale holding — an inclusive and participatory design exercise where together we apply the RP to develop a concept plan for the development of this small holding

Afternoon

Site B — larger scale holding — similar approach to the morning session and Site A — in this case we look to the broader scale landscape and the different planning, development and investment issues at play

Key Takeaways from this Workshop:

  • That applying the Regrarians Platform to the both startups and existing rural enterprises alike is a refreshing and thorough means by which to launch from and reboot
  • Being successful involves some serious planning (landscape, economic and social)
  • Achieving your integrated planning goals requires fiscal discipline and a preparedness to limit innovation, judiciously monitor your results and to continuously replan.

What you will learn in this Workshop:

  • See how the Regrarians Platform can be practically integrated in your planning of production landscape enterprises
  • Understand some of the design & planning tools that are used by Regrarians Ltd. in its daily operations and how you can integrate these too
  • Get a fresh look and approach to planning and developing production landscape enterprises



The 10 factor Regrarians Platform (RP) was first developed in 2010 (by Darren J. Doherty) following an intense period of global training and outreach from 2001 onwards. Using P.A. Yeomans’ 8 factor “keyline scale of permanence of all things agricultural” (1958) as its base, the RP not only added 9.Economy and 10.Energy, but became more holistic with the crucial infusion social and legal considerations.

The RP embraces and distills the world’s most effective regenerative design and planning methods — making it in effect a ‘methodology of methodologies’, by assigning an coherent,, strategic and practical order to their application.
