Green solutions are sprouting up all around us, but permaculture shows us how to weave them together into systems that can meet human needs and regenerate the natural world. Practical earth healing, with a magical base of ritual and nature awareness. Teaching that integrates mind and heart, with lots of hands-on practice and plenty of time to laugh. Our two-week intensives are Permaculture Design Certificate Courses, offering the basic, internationally-recognized 72 hour permaculture curriculum with an additional focus on social permaculture, organizing tools, and spirit.
