About
This Permaculture based course will be in Monbulk and will consist of 6 two hour workshops + two additional tours.Facilitated by Jane Coleman from Earth & Soul Permaculture.
As a Permaculture designer with almost 6 years experience, with a Sustainable Living diploma under my belt, I’ll be sharing knowledge and information to help you garden organically and sustainably.
I hope to inspire and encourage course members to perhaps one day follow on with a PDC (Permaculture Design Course), can’t have too may Permies in the world!
Included in this course will be two tours of local permaculture properties, already growing food organically and sustainably.
It’ll be heaps of fun, enjoy sharing stories and knowledge with likeminded people.
