PERMACULTURE FUNDAMENTALS
Saturday, May 26 & Sunday May 27
Middlesex, NY
Sliding Scale $100 - 250
with
STEVE GABRIEL, Land Use Manager at Cayuga Nature Center
and
MARK HOUSE, Farm Manager at Rochester Folk Art Guild
Spend a weekend learning the basics of permaculture design in a beutiful
spot in the Western Finger Lakes.
Walk away with a toolbox of ecological design principles after practice
on sites at the Rochester Folk Art Guild (www.rfag.org)
This course is highly affordable and offers a discussion on the ethics,
attitudes, and principles of permaculture as well as an exploration of
natural ecology and pattern that lead to regenerative designs.
We don't like lecturing. These classes are designed to be interactive
and hands on. We use the site to discover how useful permaculture ideas
can be in a variety of settings and situations.
