Advanced Permaculture Design Principles Workshop
With David Holmgren & Su Dennett
October 26th to 28th 2007
Venue: Apollo Bay Youth Club, 21 Moore St, Apollo Bay, Victoria, Australia

In this intensive course, David Holmgren, co-originator of the Permaculture
concept (with Bill Mollison in 1970's) provides an insight into
permaculture as a set of design principles for reshaping how we manage
land, our lives and our livelihoods in an world of energy descent.

Using a combination of free flowing lectures, visual presentations, case
studies of his own work, structured group discussions, observation and
design exercises, David Holmgren breathes life into the design principles
which link the diversity of permaculture solutions. This 3 day format
allows participants to gain experience in using the design principles in a
small group site design exercise.

For PDC graduates wanting to expand and redesign their permaculture toolkit
for new conditions and challenges, this course provides an update on the
ongoing evolution of these permaculture principles and their applications.

For those new to permaculture but with a grounding in sustainability
concepts and strategies, this course provides access to foundational
understandings necessary to make sense of permaculture strategies and
priorities.

Dennett will be held from 9am Friday Oct 26th to 5pm Sunday Oct 28th.

Please note that the early bird price (same as concession, ended last
month).

There are still some barter (and partial barter) positions available, but
you need to contact me and confirm this week.

Barter positions are providing lunch, dinner or morning & afternoon tea
(for 37 to 38 people).
You can do this in a group or by yourself. Eg. One person= one lunch or
morning & afternoon tea. Three people working together = help out with
three lunches or morning & afternoon teas
.
Accommodation is by own arrangement, but I will be asking the community and
local permaculture group members if they can billet the fantastic
permaculture practitioners that have booked into do this course, but I'm
never sure how open and generous the local community and members will be.
