A great introduction to this inspiring edible gardening technique where we are part of the Wildlife!
Whether you are interested in green issues, wildlife or responding to climate change, there will be something for you. Come and learn about this inspiring ecological gardening technique to grow our food, meet many human needs and increase wildlife. Based on principles found in nature, forest gardens will need less and less work over the years whilst providing more and more yields.

NOW ONLINE!: A course for school & nursery teachers, forest school leaders, nature kindergarten teachers, parents and other educators to learn how to engage children in all aspects of permaculture, learning from nature with a child-led approach.

Permaculture is about working with nature, based on deep observation and understanding of the principles which underpin natural systems. Childhood is the ideal time to get to know nature, and how nature works, through play and experimentation.

Understand how to prune properly and when not to prune.

Pruning is an ancient art. Man has been using it to tame plants for centuries as well as to promote desirable plant growth like flowers and fruits. However, not all plants benefit from pruning and the amount you can safely prune varies from species to species. Some plants only flower on new shoots whereas others may only flower on old wood. To fully understand pruning you need a basic appreciation of plant growth.

This course runs over two separate weeks at Britain's longest standing food forest garden with the Uk's longest served diploma holder and teacher, Graham Bell. It is limited to twelve people. It covers the approved curriculum of Permaculture Association Britain which is heavily dependent on Bill Mollison's Designer's Manual.

This weekend is designed as an experiential introduction to the Art of Mentoring and the 8 Shields model, sharing cultural wisdom and deep nature connection practices researched from 'old growth' earth connected cultures from around the world. It supports people to connect to themselves, each other and the world around them more deeply.

Delivered by NonStuff Industries CIC, this full PDC develops an understanding of permaculture ethics, principles, design processes and implementation techniques. It’s your first step on what we hope will become a lifelong permaculture journey.

Our classes are interactive, relaxed and fun, with a good mix of information sessions, hands-on practical work, observation opportunities, creative project work and participatory ideas exchange. We welcome people of all levels of experience and backgrounds: come prepared to both learn and share.

This is the 10th Permaculture Design Course in Glasgow with Lusi Alderslowe! Permaculture is a holistic design system for sustainable living, creating systems for minimum effort and maximum effect. This course is one weekend per month. The first module can also be taken as a stand alone introduction, which allows you to come along and meet everyone before you commit to the rest of the course.

This in total 16 day long course consists of a broad range of topics applicable to life anywhere on the planet, at the same time catering to specific needs of the participating students.The Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) Course allows you to be the change you want to see in the world. It provides skills and solid knowledge in permaculture design as a science that can create abundant ecosystems sustainably in the backyard, a small farm or on a larger broad acre landscape.TOPICS WILL INCLUDE :
‣ History and definition of Permaculture

This summer we will be running the international standard curriculum of the 72-hour permaculture course which is certified by the Permaculture Association (UK).

We are situated in rural Brittany with the beautiful, inspiring countryside on our doorstep. We have secured a former dairy farm as the main teaching site, and the learning will take place between there and Afrinoon Permaculture farm with its integrated food/animal systems.

This course will give you a wide ranging introduction to permaculture as an approach to designing more sustainable ways of living and working on the Earth. It will give you a good grounding in the core elements of a permaculture approach including the ethical framework or values that underpin it, the principles from nature that it draws on, and a design framework for applying them.

Here at Garden Cottage we can produce over a ton of fod a year - but mostly between July and October (being the same latitude as Alaska). So how can we spread the use of our harvest around twelve months of the year? This two day course focuses on a range of preservation techniques for both seasonal produce and some year round opportunities covering a wide range of topics which will be adjusted to the interests of the participants. Lunch is included (including sampling previously prepared preserves).

Three day intensive programme.
Tutors: Sarah Spencer and Milly Carmichael

Overview:
We associate woodlands, forests and other natural ecosystems with resilience, longevity and harmony, but often struggle to experience these in our own lives.

By exploring principles derived from nature, this programme will guide you step-by-step through a design cycle that can be used for a wide range of personal circumstances – relationships, health, wellbeing, leisure and work.
