A Two Week Intensive...
Larry Santoyo and Toby Hemenway join Green Phoenix Permaculture for a two-week residential permaculture design intensive that past participants have called "life-changing" and "a source of inspiration". This August, we journey to the Sivananda Ashram Yoga Ranch located on 77 acres in New York's Catskills.
Urban or Rural Resident, Planner, Land Manager, Design Professional or Home Manager, this Course is for you! The training covers the fundamentals of ecological design that can be applied to the design of any human system. Upon completion, attendees will receive a Permaculture Design Trainee Certificate from the Permaculture Institute (U.S.A).
Course topics include:
- Re-Localizing Food Production
- Organizing Eco-Neighborhoods
- Simple Steps Toward Sustainable Lifestyles and Communities
- Natural Building & Property Development
- Adding Beauty & Value to Your Home
- Strategies for Energy Descent & Peak Oil
- Green Business Strategies and Finding your Right-Livelihood Career
The Permaculture Design Course has transformed the lives and enhanced the careers of thousands of architects, landscapers, community developers, social workers, city planners, teachers, students, farmers, gardeners, homeowners, business owners and others. It's for anyone serious about creating a sustainable future! Permaculture principles apply to any scale of design, to highly urbanized areas, suburbs, and rural communities and properties.
