Through a series of videos and interactive lessons, students will gain a foundational understanding of earth systems, the principles of permaculture, and basic design methodology. This material will lay the important conceptual groundwork needed for the In-person design training.

9 am to 5pm all 6 days
The in-person portion of the course will have 2 main goals: to practice permaculture skills and to undertake a design project. We will learn some of the practical applications of permaculture such as conservation hydrology, earthworks, food forests, composting, natural building, renewable energy systems and more. The permaculture design project during the course will be for Snipes Farm.
We will be abiding by all state and county Covid protocols. Most of the in-person learning at Snipes Farm will be outdoors and we will be wearing masks for any indoor activities.
