Introduction to Permaculture Design and Its Applications
Many people have heard the term "permaculture" before, but don’t understand what it is. Permaculture is a creative design process based on whole-systems thinking informed by ethics and design principles. In this class we will learn the origin of permaculture, its ethics, principles, and how we can apply these in our lives. There will be several examples given of successful outcomes and plenty of time for questions and discussion. Sponsored by EarthFest and Destination Medical Center.
