This course is now full

Join us for this introduction on Saturday 13rd and Sunday 14th October 2018. The weekend is identical to the start of our full Permaculture Design course, and completing this will give you a full credit against future fees should you decide to continue with us in the future. Our courses are available on a modular basis

The course will be held at the The Parsonage in Didsbury village, south of Manchester. This has good public transport links and is easily accessible from the M60 and north Cheshire towns by car.

Our courses are certificated internationally by the Permaculture Research Institute

The course is open to all, regardless of any previous experience or literacy levels. The course content has a wide and flexible application, not only for home and garden design, but also for those wishing to apply the permaculture design techniques within their business or career. We aim to provide you with the tools to enhance and facilitate community-based projects of all kinds, including Transition Towns and Incredible Edible initiatives. Many of the graduates of our full design course go on to set up permaculture-inspired initiatives of their own. You can read more about people who will benefit from the course.

The course will be led by Angus Soutar and Teresa Pereira. Angus has rich experience of guiding and implementing permaculture design in a variety of commercial settings. He is keen to share this growing body of knowledge during the weekend.

 

What will we study?

The aim is to give you an introduction to the transition to a practical and peaceful future, in the way that you want it to. You can read more about the course topics here (Day 1 and Day 2).
