The Northern School of Permaculture provides training and professional development services to build skills in productive, functional design. We take a holistic and ecological approach to design, based on the work of Bill Mollison and his Australian colleagues.
Our assessment remains that there are still many things we don't know about the SARS-2 coronavirus outbreak in the UK, although we are beginning to see our way forward. Our events and meetings continue as on-line conferences. Gatherings will resume once we are sure that they are safe for all participants. We hope that this will be in April.
All events remain open for booking. Scroll down to see current courses. Our on-line programme is published here.

"Permaculture Design is the first system of conscious, functional, design in the world. That's its unique aspect - its functional design is sustainable."
Our guild has links to other guilds and organisations who acknowledge the power of "open source" working:
Permaculture Research Institute - the PRI is pre-eminent coherent authority on world-wide Permaculture The PRI has accredited our Permaculture Design Certificate course (PDC) and we are seeking closer working relations with them
Global Ecovillage Network (GEN) Africa - we are working with them to develop holistic training and cultural exchange across continents and climate zones
