SUMMARY:A Taste of Permaculture
DESCRIPTION:Location: Green Connect Farm\, 6 Anna Avenue Warrawong\n\nDate: Sunday 3rd April\nTime: 9:00am-12:30pm (3.5 hrs)\nTeacher: Cal Champagne (about the teacher)\nPrice: Early Bird $86 | Full-priced $96 | Concession $66\n \nAre you interested in learning more about the ethics and principles that underpin permaculture and how these can be used to design systems to produce our food that are both sustainable and abundant? \nJoin leading permaculturalist Cal Champagne for this 3.5 hour immersive workshop which will help you understand the foundations of permaculture. We will take you on an in-depth tour of the Green Connect Farm\, one of the largest urban permaculture farms in the world\, to show you how we apply permaculture design principles to produce abundant chemical-free food\, and explain how these principles can be applied anywhere. \nThis workshop will explore a range of permaculture-focused topics: \n\nLearn about the various levels of holistic site design and land management practices applied at the Green Connect Farm.\nMeet the chickens\, goats\, alpacas\, pigs and sheep and learn how they have been integrated into our perennial food systems to help repair the land and yield ethically raised produce.\nWalk the creek line to see how bringing back indigenous rainforest species as part of a biodiversity belt is helping to create a diverse\, resilient ecosystem that complements our food production.\nUnderstand the sustainable cropping techniques that produce veggies and herbs for households\, restaurants and cafes throughout the Illawarra region.\nLearn how nutrients are recycled throughout the farm to create production and efficiency rather than waste.\nHear how permaculture has been used as a vehicle at the Green Connect Farm for empowering former refugees\, young people\, and the wider community.\n\nYou’ll come away from this workshop with a good foundational understanding of what permaculture is\, what the intentions of the permaculture movement are\, practical applications of permaculture in a real-world farm setting\, and how you can apply permaculture design thinking to your own life and move towards more intentional\, sustainable systems of production. \nThis workshop is for anyone interested in permaculture design\, regenerative agriculture\, backyard gardening\, urban agriculture\, local food systems\, sustainable and ethical animal management\, fairness for agricultural workers\, recycling organic waste\, or the role of native restoration in agricultural landscapes. \nIncluded: \n\nA tour of Green Connect’s award winning urban permaculture farm.\nDetailed course notes\, including a recommended reading list.\nMorning tea will be provided for all participants\n\nBefore you book your ticket\, please consider the following: \n\nPlants love rain and so do we!
