Fundamentals of Permaculture Design - Course at UBC Farm (Aug 28 - Nov 30)    Sat Aug 28 to Tue Nov 30, 2010, Vancouver, BC

Please join us for a dynamic, internationally recognized certificate course on the principles and practice of Permaculture Design. We will guide you to finding practical applications of sustainable design in urban and rural contexts through dynamic media presentations, guest lecturers from UBC and the greater community, and applied hands-on sessions.

Permaculture is a holistic method of design leading to establishing a “permanent culture” guided by grounded ethics, principles and design practises. It considers the whole system at multiple levels of scale through the intelligent integration of social, economic, land, water, plants, and shelter sub-systems. Using Permaculture can lead to the design and implementation of self-sustaining, regenerative human systems that “do good” for both human kind AND the Earth.

UBC student rate (early bird special): $950
Community rate: $1250
