Two Week Summer Intensive
June 16-29, 2024
June 16th is an arrival day, with a farm orientation in the evening. The course begins Monday, June 17th.
Our 2-week intensive covers the same curriculum as our 6-month course. Tuition includes catered meals and on-site camping.
The 2-week intensive is followed by our 8-day Advanced Permaculture Design Course. Please consider joining us for both courses.
About the course
The Santa Cruz Permaculture Design Certificate course, certified by PINA, the Permaculture Institute of North America, includes the internationally recognized 72-hour curriculum, augmented by an additional 38-hours of hands on practice and field trips. Plus, folks have the option to camp on site, and build community around the fire!
Our course brings in leading designers and teachers from around the region, each experts in different areas of permaculture. The Santa Cruz Permaculture network of instructors, alumni, community partners, and resources continues to grow each season, and by participating in our course, you become part of this network! Read interviews with our alumni here to learn how folks use the skills and knowledge they gain in this course.
Additionally, course participants work in teams throughout the program to design a holistic permaculture plan for a real-life site in the community. The hands-on learning, workshops, and readings throughout the course prepare students with knowledge and whole systems thinking strategies that allow them to create detailed and thoughtful designs.
