This 6.5-week online course provides an opportunity for you to build
your knowledge about permaculture and ecological design. Permaculture
gardens, farms, and backyards balance the provision of human needs with
improvement of local ecosystem health. Participants will explore the
content through videos, readings, and activities and complete portions
of design for a site of their choosing.
This course is one of three that we offer in permaculture design. (Read
more about Permaculture Design: Ecosystem Mimicry and Permaculture
Design: Design Practicum.) Students may elect to take courses
individually if desired or as a set. You may choose an order that best
suits your availability and interest. There are no prerequisite
requirements for admission into courses.
Most of our participants take our distance courses for life enrichment
or professional development. Participants do not receive Cornell
University credit for taking any of the courses. Students who complete
all three courses are eligible to apply for a certificate from the
Finger Lakes Permaculture Institute (www.fingerlakespermaculture.org)
