Hands-On Permaculture Skills Camp- Certificate Course and Organic Farm Living...
Four Elements Farm.
October 17-30, 2010 | San Luis Obispo County
http://earthflow.com/SLOPDC10.php
The
site for our course is Four Elements Farm, a 47 acre Natural Building
Learning Center and organic farm nestled in the steep chaparral hills of
California's central coast. Hands-on opportunities on the organic farm
and garden abound throughout
the course: chickens, beekeeping, composting, fruit tree management,
harvesting, planting and more. The farm is also home to 4 Elements Foods
and Elemental Herbs Co.
As both backdrop and center stage for the
design course, the farm provides us with the opportunity to experience
the revitalization process associated with the use of permaculture
principles. Halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles, San Luis Obispo is
America's coastal heartland, where agriculture and ranching are still
important parts of life. The Farm is minutes away from world-class wine
country and unspoiled beaches... Optional field trips, wine tasting
beaches, farmers markets and Big Sur Excursion.
