PDC Module 1 Permaculture Foundations

Today is about entering the world of permaculture.

This is the start of a year long, 12 module course. After getting introduced, we’ll flush out permacultures’ definitions, principles, ethics, and get familiar with its origins.  We’ll be inside and outside as weather allows, alternating lecture, short videos, paired exercises and individual work with fun exercises to give you an overall understanding of what permaculture is all about.  You’ll see presentations of 1-2 designs by recent graduates to give you a sense of what’s possible and hear about what’s happening with Permaculture around NZ. For those attending the year long course, we’ll finish by discussing the scope of individual design project to be presented in April 2020.  Today lays out the pathway to module #2: The Permaculture Design Process.
