Practical permaculture program at Bogata Šuma, Croatia
This course will teach you "all" about permaculture. In this 2 week intensive program you will learn about practical permaculture in real life. How to design your land and how to design your life with permaculture ethics (earth care, people care and fair share or future care) and principles as decision making tools, and how to implement techniques.
In these 2 weeks we will not only talk about these subjects, but also DO things. After the 2 weeks you will have a design for your vegetable growing space, and a design for a part of your life. You'll have tools to read the landscape and some knowledge about natural building techniques. You'll learn about soil, composting techniques, water and how to setup an ecological garden.
It is all inclusive so you'll get a comfortable bed and 3 meals a day plus tea breaks.
