Permaculture for Beginners DVD in the Works

Courses/Workshops, DVDs/Books, Developments, News — by Flashtoonz

Editor’s Note: Our creative video genius, Frank Gapinski, gives us an update on the work of Flashtoonz

Coming in 2009 is the DVD we’ve been wanting to do for a long time. Permaculture for Beginners is the fundamental introduction to the Permaculture Design Certificate Course. Its the 72 hour Course boiled down to just over 90 minutes with all the essential points covered. If you are interested in doing the full PDC and want to know more about it - then this DVD introduces the course in a nutshell.

More than just a classroom lecture - each point is covered in practical detail with on the field examples. If you’re new to Permaculture and don’t know where to begin - then this DVD reveals the PDC in all its glory by one of the best, most experienced teachers on the planet - Geoff Lawton. Geoff has taught the course in over 27 different countries.

He’s currently in Iran before travelling to Morocco and then back to Australia in January. Geoff is pretty excited about this title as its a way to introduce a whole new generation of people to Permaculture. The project was scheduled to begin in November but we had another DVD on the boil that needed completion. 2009 should be an interesting year for Permaculture people around the globe.

Harvesting Water has been translated for the Chinese market and other language translations are in the works. We got some big plans and some very exciting fresh films to reveal before the 2009 is done.

More details to come in the following weeks.

  • Awesome!

    I hope you can show or explore alternative methods to irrigation that do not require plastic.. maybe bamboo ? How can we utilize ponds and pump out water with low-tech..

    Or is plastic ok? are there alternatives? are there bio-plastics that can be recycled and engineered to be sustainable?

  • I can do Russian translation for for you. Iv done PDC and APT4 at Brisbane and the major was International relations.
    I have an experience of translating PC videos, such as La Belle Verte movie and Story of Stuff clip not to mention unrelated works.
    I have a professional soft and hard ware to accomplish quality job.

    PS - As I said to you before, I wouldn’t rely on CS4 Speech to Text feature. After your advise I’v tried that and as I said text is unreadable and required persons editing.
