Permaculture Design

Learn to design a garden or property that works with nature instead of against it, using the permaculture method that turns observation into a concrete plan. You will apply the three ethics and David Holmgren's twelve design principles, complete a sectors-and-zones analysis of your own site, harvest rainwater with on-contour swales and rain gardens sized to real rainfall, build soil with sheet mulch and cover crops, and assemble plant guilds and a seven-layer food forest. By the end you can move through the full OBREDIMET design process and produce a base map, zone-and-sector overlay, and planting plan for your land.
