This advanced, hands-on permaculture course is designed to deepen practical skills and real-world understanding. Building on core permaculture knowledge, the course focuses on techniques, from earthworks and water management to food forests, soil regeneration, and integrated design.
Participants spend significant time learning directly on site, applying theory through practical activities and collaborative design work. The emphasis is on developing confidence, competence, and the ability to make sound design decisions in complex, living systems.
The final two days of the course are advanced design skills based on a real site.
This course bridges the gap between learning permaculture and doing permaculture. It is not a replacement for a theory based Permaculture Design Course where hands on learning is limited. Participants should have completed a Permaculture Design Course or have a depth of permaculture understanding or background or experience to benefit from this course.
PDC graduates wanting deeper practical experience either due to completing an online course with little practical exposure, having completed the course some time ago or just needing a refresher
