PERMACULTURE DESIGN CERTIFICATION COURSE
AT WORLD STEWARD'S HIGHLAND FARM
Join us for a two-week intensive design course facilitated by Toby Hemenway and Jude Hobbs at Highland Farm.
Permaculture is a whole-systems method of design that organizes ideas, strategies, and techniques from agriculture, appropriate technology, natural building, economics, and other disciplines into a pattern of mutually supportive relationships. By using principles from nature to thoughtfully integrate land, water, plants, people, animals, shelter, technologies, and community, Permaculture lets us design sustainable places to live.

WHERE: Across from Hood River in Underwood Washington. Located in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge in the inspirational complexity of both east and west Cascade ecosystems, Highland Farm is dedicated to landscape based education for a sustainable culture.
WHEN: August 19-31, 2005
COST: $1,400 includes local organic farm-fresh meals, covered camping, workshops and course materials, and a subscription to the Permaculture Activist. Certification is available upon completion of the two-week course.

Generous Scholarships are available to those interested in doing work
exchange.
