Fri/Sat/Sun April 14-16Gardening and Permaculture Workshop Camp Stevens Cost
$85
Dr. Bill Roley of the Permaculture Institute of Southern
California in Laguna Beach will lead a weekend workshop teaching the
fundamentals of permaculture design and regenerative strategies of
gardening for a sustainable future. He will help form a plan for the Camp
Stevens’ garden and its surrounding ecosystem by taking a watershed
perspective using geography, geology, climate, flora and fauna as the
design elements, and also teach you how to transform your own garden.
Bill will explain the basic principles of permaculture (permanent
agriculture) around the five elements of Community Design: Food,
Waste, Water, Energy, and Shelter. By weaving these five elements
together in a conscious design we combine science, lifestyle and ethics
into the perpetual cycles of life, death and rebirth. Permaculture design
is a system of assembling all the important components of our habitat in
a pattern which will benefit not only humans, but all the animals and
plants in the area. It is using the insights of our grandparents rather than
robbing the resources of our children by understanding that we are on
the cutting edge of a 10,000 year old technology.
