Join us for a two-day workshop that will change your life and could change
the world. This course is right for you whether you are new to
Permaculture, looking for insight into the workings of a practicing
permaculture farm, or seeking guidance with the design process. The only
prerequisite? The hope that when we think ethically and use ecological
design principles, humans can be a vital and beneficial part of the natural
world.Permaculture ethics and principles can be practiced on any piece of
land and with all sorts of animals. You’ll learn principles, design
methods, and strategies that will benefit a suburban backyard, a community
garden, a local food co-op, or the abandoned farmstead you inherited from
your grandmother. You’ll learn management strategies for livestock that
allow them to do what they do best, lead good lives, and produce a yield.Fox
Hollow Farm <http://www.foxhollowfarmnaturally.com/> is a family managed,
multi-species, mob grazing grass farm that incorporates Permaculture
Design. Come learn how we designed a regenerative landscape that mimics
nature and follows ecological principles. A landscape that allows us to
harvest high quality food and resources for our family and community, all
while investing in future fertility.

Day One: Registration begins at 8:45 and class starts at 9:30. We will
spend the morning in introductions of each other and to permaculture. Ernest
<http://permacultureglobal.org/users/3944-ernest-rando> will present on
Permaculture Ethics, the ecological principles of Permaculture Design, and
lead a discussion on global situations that are creating local
opportunities in our culture for agricultural and artistic change. After
the provided lunch, walk around the farm and see how we implement the use
the permaculture principles to develop business and agricultural strategies
on Fox Hollow and get inspired by how you can practice them yourself. The
evening’s festivities will include an optional potluck and movie screening
of the David Holmgren’s documentary “Relocalization
<http://permacultureprinciples.com/product/relocalisation-dvd/>”.Day Two: 
Class
begins at 10:00 am. We will focus on doing hands-on Permaculture Design. In
the morning, we will learn how to use analysis tools and design strategies.
After another delicious lunch, we put those tools to use and create a basic
regenerative management plan for several individuals’ landscapes. Then
you’ll head out to home and start changing the world.

Please feel free to bring your own contour maps of your community or
private property.
