Event Description

If you are curious about what permaculture is and not sure about taking the whole 12 day Design course, this is a great taste of what Siskiyou Permaculture has to offer. Drawing on scientific and indigenous knowledge, permaculture strives to design a new culture that can persist on planet earth in balance with nature and regenerate our ecosystems. This land use and community building movement focuses on designing ecological human habitats and food production systems that provide for human needs while regenerating local ecosystems.
Permaculture topics include homestead and community design, appropriate technology, water, soils, closing waste and resource loops, ecological relationships, forestry, natural building, food growing and building new culture. We will discuss permaculture principles and ethics, design methodologies, exemplary books, and the state of the world from a permaculture perspective.
