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 will be in the Amazon rainforest of Brazil in colaboration with the Kawanawa tribe and you will be able to live the life of the people of the forest and help improve their living conditions with permaculture design.
