systems that allow us regenerative and high-yield harvests. In temperate
northern climates we have the best resources and environment for a wide
selection of plants and trees. Learn how we can create functional,
beautiful and regenerative spaces. Lead by Dan Halsey of PRI-USA, this
two-day course will focus on the permaculture design process and drawing
skills within that context. We will be looking at cold climate strategies
as solution and use the pencil process to develop professional level
presentations of designs.

-
Site Assessment, Data Mining, Case Studies of Permaculture Design
