Welcome!

We specialise in high-quality permaculture education. We offer a range of different courses at a variety of venues in England. We hope you’ll find the one that’s just right for you.

Permaculture means learning from nature. The aim is to make our lives more sustainable and more productive while reducing the work and energy required. We do this by taking nature as the model for designing our own houses, gardens, farms, woodlands, towns and villages.

The Courses
The two-week Design Courses is the classic permaculture course, recognised the world over.

The nine-week Sustainable Land Use Course includes the Design Course plus modules on: the soil, ecology, organic horticulture and sustainable forestry.

Permaculture in Five Days is for busy people. It runs over a weekend, so you only need to take three days off.
