Good Day,

I am writing to promote an extensive workshop on sustainable living that I feel you or someone that you know maybe interested in.  This is a full Permaculture Design Certificate Course.  Throughout the course participants will learn the fundamentals and hands-on experience in many areas including rainwater harvesting, greywater system design, and food forestry.  The course takes place over 12 days on a weekend format.  For more info and to sign up check outhttp://www.edenonearthlandscaping.com/pdc/  Please pass this on to anyone that you think is interested.  Let me know if you have any questions.  I have also attached a flyer that can be printed out.

Jan 14-16, 21-23, 28-30, and Feb 4-6

Learn how Permaculture design can meet and exceed human needs by transforming human gardens and communities into fully functioning ecosystems. Receive hands-on experience on how to apply the principles of ecological design in your own home, farm, neighborhood, and city.

Permaculture is an integrated ecological design system for creating sustainable human settlements.  Far more than a set of gardening tips and techniques, Permaculture is about understanding and designing the connections between people, the earth, plants, energy, climate, water, transportation, shelter, animals, economics and much more.  

This course is for:
Home owners, renters, gardeners, farmers, ranchers, landscapers, architects, builders, developers, civic planners, educators, environmentalists, students … everyone who wishes to learn how to live sustainably and apply the principles of holistic design to their respective fields.

  • Permaculture ethics
