Description

BECOME A CERTIFIED PERMACULTURE DESIGNER

 

Are you ready to learn how to design a natural, empowered and self-sufficient permaculture space? Join us at the Krishna Village to transform the way you live in the world and relate to your environment. Your tribe is waiting for you!

 

Permaculture is a practical and ecological design science. By using appropriate and intelligent design principles, we learn to work with, rather than against nature at every level of the human environment.

Daily yoga sessions, nourishing food and a beautiful natural setting help to harmonise body, mind and soul in service of us co-creating a more beautiful world.

Topics covered

Participating in a permaculture design course at the Krishna Village Eco Yoga Community is a unique opportunity to be involved in an integrated ‘whole-being’ approach to permaculture, yoga and conscious community creation. During your time on this course you will experience and gain understanding of the following:

  • Permaculture Principles

  • Ecological Design Concepts

  • Patterns and their relationship to Design

  • Zone & Sector Analysis

  • How to design for any climate

  • The importance of water management

  • Soil fertility and creation

  • The 'rules' of building sustainable houses

  • Fine gardening, food forest & cropping strategies

  • People Permaculture & Community Development

  • Evolution of natural systems

  • Economic & legal considerations in land use

  • and much much more...

Throughout the course, a variety of short group design exercises will be presented, culminating in a final and complete permaculture design grounding everything you will have learned. This experience will undoubtedly give you the confidence to create permaculture designs for yourself, friends, family and potentially be the first step in a wide-open career pathway.
