Commonweal Garden, Bolinas California - 1 hour North of San Francisco on the 
California Coast

Empower yourself to advocate for change through whole systems design and 
teaching! In this dynamic and interactive course, you learn significant 
teaching techniques to communicate and apply Permaculture principles and 
strategies to a wide variety of audiences and educational settings. Our goal 
is to encourage and inspire your unique strengths and abilities by 
demonstrating diverse teaching modalities including effective use of lecture, 
storytelling, class discussions, interactive experiential activities, visual 
aids and hands-on skills.

As a group we facilitate a safe setting of active learning, building 
confidence by experiencing essential practice via preparing and co-teaching 
multiple presentations.

As with a Permaculture Design Course, in this teacher training we offer 
practical solutions for sharing information, which is essential in these 
current times. We have had great success teaching, and are advocates for the 
Mollisonian Standard Permaculture Design Course curriculum. We also believe 
each course taught needs to speak directly to local conditions and the 
specific skills of the presenters’ team.

Jude has taught this course almost thirty times and it is never the same way 
twice… As proactive educators we are constantly adjusting the way a workshop 
or course is presented…creating innovative experiences that address varied 
learning styles while moving from theory to practice.

We appreciate the unique skills and experiences of those attending and 
cultivate networking for future connections and support. A core part of 
Jude’s work is inspiring and training the next generation of Permaculture 
advocates.
