In this one-day workshop we give insights into and tools for 4 different aspects of permaculture. Drawing from Garden Juju Collective’s international projects, teaching and research we present:

• Introduction to the Permaculture worldview

• Design and Site Analysis

• Growing Perennial and Heritage foods

• Establishing a Food Forest 

Permaculture empowers us with critical knowledge and equips us to meet the challenges and opportunities of this current time. The study and practice of permaculture encompasses: 1) Homesteading, Farm and Garden Design for abundance and sustainability, 2) Perennial Permaculture Gardens and Food Forests, and 3) how to design and put into practice Sustainable Living Systems – this can be applied to landscapes, but it can also guide our design principles for life in general, whether we have land or not. Are you ready for life-altering, paradigm-shifting, practice-building, inspirational change the way you are in the world?  This workshop is for you if:

• You are tired of seeing the many broken systems all around us and want to be a part of the movement that is regenerating land and creating sustainable solutions.

• You feel a pull to work with nature rather than against it.

• You would like to start living by design rather than by habitual default.

• You are curious how to incorporate ecological design into your gardens, farms, homes, relationships, work and life in general.

• You are craving a holistic approach to sharing resources, minimizing waste, and advocating for human needs, earth needs, and the needs of future generations.

• You’d like to get more deeply into permaculture.
