Event Details

The 72-hour Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) Course allows you to be the change you want to see in the world. Based on Bill Mollison’s Permaculture Designers’ Manual, it provides skills and solid knowledge in Permaculture design as a science that can create abundant ecosystems sustainably in the backyard, a small farm or on a larger broad acre landscape.

Permaculture integrates land, resources, people and the environment through mutually beneficial synergies – imitating the no waste, closed loop systems seen in diverse natural systems.

The course covers sustainable living systems for a wide variety of landscapes and climates. It includes the application of Permaculture principles to food production, home design, construction, energy conservation and generation, and explores alternative economic structures and legal strategies supporting permaculture solutions.

You will be taught by world class teachers including Geoff Lawton. You will not find a better teacher than Geoff and he is supported by highly active and engaging staff, most of which live and teach alongside Geoff and Nadia at Zaytuna Farm. As one of the leading Permaculture demonstration sites in the world, Zaytuna Farm has a range of functioning systems including water harvesting, food production, and a very productive animal husbandry. All of which will add to the learning experience and make this course a very rich experience and one not to be missed.

Event Details

Our brand new and thorough practical training at Zaytuna Farm picks up where the Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) course leaves off.

The PDC, as we teach it, is an intensive theoretical journey into the essential core concepts and design elements of all aspects of Permaculture. Students of this course undoubtedly emerge inspired and with access to incredible new perspectives on the world around us. This large volume of theory is necessary and teaches the student all of the fundamental components of Permaculture as an entire system.

Which leads us to the most common questions coming out from the PDC:

“How do I get started?”
“How do I develop the skills and confidence I need to get going?”

Our Permaculture in Action course is the answer we have created to these questions.

This thorough five-day training takes the student through five of the core systems we currently run on the farm and teaches the basic practical nuances in running systems, or variations of systems, like these for oneself.

This course is a practical course with a small amount of class time. Around 80% of the time will be working directly in the field gaining the hands-on experience in applied Permaculture.

Event Details

Let us take you into the world of Permaculture with a weekend tour of our home, Zaytuna Farm, a property which is at the forefront of Permaculture Design.

Zaytuna Farm is a very active Permaculture demonstration site and education centre. It is also a highly productive working family farm, which opens it’s gates to interested members of the public, on very limited occasions.

Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity, from which you will be able to observe the principles of permaculture and witness the abundance of food and other yields that we produce from our various living environments and intricately designed systems.

Our property tour will start with a brief introduction to Permaculture. We will then take you on a walk, inspecting some of the highlights of the farm including the animal housing, some of our biological cleaning elements, our natural buildings, our commercial farm projects, our compost systems, energy systems and food forests. You will be guided through our annual and perennial food systems, irrigation, potable water, soil conservation, waste systems & recycling, water harvesting and plenty more.

What better way to learn about Permaculture than to take part in one of these special events. Geoff and Nadia Lawton, along with the team at Zaytuna Farm invite you to come and learn more about Permaculture and to see first hand how they apply it in their everyday lives to create sustainable abundance.
