Introduction to Permaculture Workshop

Permaculture is the design & implementation of sustainable & ecological human habitats. It is based on the observation of natural system and uses ecological principles to increase diversity and productivity of local human ecosystems. It can be used both in urban and rural areas. The participants will learn the basic principles & techniques of permaculture design and will be able to use some of those ideas in their own backyard or on their land.
