The Daily Acts' 72-hour Permaculture Design Certificate course will introduce you to strategies and tools for designing and living in landscapes\, homes\, businesses\, and communities that are regenerative-that is\, that go well beyond just depleting resources and the human spirit\, to actually renewing and invigorating them. The course is led by Toby Hemenway\, whose Permaculture guidebook\, Gaia's Garden\, is best-selling permaculture book in the world. Having taught over 50 Permaculture Design Courses\, Toby is one of the premier permaculture educators in the world today. Guest instructors include acclaimed experts Larry Santoyo\, Brock Dolman\, Pandora Thomas\, Erik Ohlsen\, John Valenzuela and others. Upon successful completion of the course participants will earn a Permaculture Design Certificate issued by The Permaculture Institute (USA)\, the principal certifying body in the US. Permaculture is a design system for creating sustainable human environments that uses natural systems as a model. You'll learn to create and practice sustainable solutions for food\, water\, energy\, and shelter\; building social capital\; developing a sustainable economy\, renewing local communities on all scales\, and more. In this course\, you will gain a comprehensive framework for critical decision-making to guide re-designing human settlements\, from backyards to cityscapes\, based on the patterns of natural ecosystems. Permaculture is about a whole lot more than just gardening! Guest instructors will provide a diversity of examples of permaculture in practice. Students will apply the concepts of the course through a group design project. Most of the student design projects from past years' courses are now being implemented around the Bay Area. For more information\, please contact Michael Sturgis at (707) 789-9664 or michael@dailyacts.org Presented by Daily Acts.
