Please note this is the only ITP course for the remainder of 2016.
This two day intensive course covers topics from gardening, sustainable housing, soil, site analysis, permaculture design, and zoning. It is a great overview of what permaculture is so as to enable you to take the next steps to incorporate this into your life. You will receive a Introduction to Permaculture certificate and a copy of the late, great Bill Mollison's book " Introduction to Permaculture." The course will be at Kimbriki Eco House and Garden at Ingleside (just off Mona Vale Rd.). This allows for practical exercises in the garden. The Eco Garden has an established permaculture garden, native bee hive, aquaponics, compost toilets, straw bale/hempcrete and recycled buildings.
