ARS TERRA: PERMACULTURE DESIGN COURSE (2-week intensive)
Saturday, August 2 - Friday, August 15, 2008

Learn to transform cities the way nature designs ecosystems

Using the positive, solutions-oriented holistic design science of  
permaculture, we can redesign our urban environment to integrate  
harmoniously with nature, learning to observe and solve problems the  
way She does. This 2-week intensive permaculture design course will  
take place at Animal Acres in Acton, CA. Saturday, August 2 - Friday,  
August 15, 2008. This complete permaculture design certification  
course focuses on creative, pro-active strategies for all environments.

Who should attend: People who are looking for positive, effective  
responses to peak oil, climate change, economic globalization,  
factory farming, mega-cities, etc. Anyone interested in learning  
about Whole Living; the path of living in complete harmony with our  
environment and all living creatures.

Topics covered will include: Permaculture ethics and principles,  
pattern language, soils, ecological systems, water catchment and use,  
climate and microclimate, food production and security, constructed  
wetlands, renewable energy, bioregionalism, alternative currencies,  
biofuels, eco-villages, natural building and much, much more...

Hands-on experience, site visits and field trips.
