Permaculture Design Certificate Course 26/27

Rooted in connection: an integrated 1yr PDC for self, community and earth...
Permaculture is a design system born from close observation of natural patterns and ecosystems to create regenerative, resilient and productive food and land systems. The Permaculture Design Certificate is an internationally recognised qualification covering the ethics of earth care, people care and fair share as well as the 12 design principles which culminates in a practical design project.
Our venue for the course is Treflach Farm, a regenerative farm in the Shropshire hills with outstanding views. It uses permaculture principles to regeneratively farm using circular systems of animal, plant and human relationships. We will be using their warm and bright yoga studio, eating their home grown, home cooked food and possibly even plunging in their pool!
