Permaculture: Natural Systems for Living Sustainably

Permaculture uses the laws of nature to maximize yields and decrease inputs into an eco-agriculture system. We can live in true elegance, having health, prosperity, free time, friends, food, homes and meaningful activity, respecting the plants and animals around us, and leaving the biosphere in a more productive and healthy state than when we found it. The model of permaculture is divided between the "visible" structures and the "invisible" structures. In this workshop, the basic principles of Permaculture will be presented through an experiential mode. You can learn a lot and have fun doing it.
