This is an exciting opportunity giving you the chance to learn permaculture design theory whilst actively experiencing a sustainable way of life. The art farm is being transformed using applied permaculture design techniques featuring eco building, organic fruit and vegetable gardens, solar water heating, solar showers, composting toilets, grey-water recycling, rain-water harvesting, dry stonewalling, Straw bale construction and lime rendering.

The Art Farm Permaculture Design Certificate Course is a 72 hour long training program that runs as a 10 day intensive residential, taught by renouned international Permaculture Designers and Educators thanks the the Art Farms unique International Exchange Program.

The Permaculture Design Course curriculum is a combination of intuition, creativity and hard science providing a new way to arrive at solutions. Patterning and observation skills are perhaps the most compelling aspects of a permaculture designer's training. You will learn "where and when you are" and how to "read the patterns of the landscape." Using ancient techniques and innovative methodologies, you will learn to make the most appropriate choices for techniques, practices and placement of elements used in any design.
