SUMMARY:Online Permaculture Design Course Oct\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Online course will start on October 14th 2025.  \nMany requests have come in asking us to offer an online permaculture design course from people whose schedules don’t match up with our in-person courses or who prefer to study online. This course can be studied at your own pace\, with a focus on your own site design. Creating the opportunity for a participatory and hands-on experience is important to us\, so we include practical exercises that you perform on your own site. In addition we will have live Q and A sessions and personal mentoring with instructors and you will be able to share your experience with instructors and other students via photos\, essays or videos. \nWe have added some exciting learning modules to the online version and other extras\, including units with experts covering various topics. The course will address strategies for drylands\, temperate\, tropical and other climates based on the significant knowledge and experience of our instructors working in those climates and will also have bonus sections focused specifically on Florida/subtropical climate because of how unique the ecosystem is in Florida. Many of these techniques are very useful in multiple climates and we explain how and why. \nStudents will have an opportunity to self-test their knowledge\, to join discussion groups with other students\, to participate in question and answer sessions on Zoom (online video conference software) with instructors\, and to get feedback from a personal mentor. In addition there are in-person modules for those who want that\, and special sessions we normally can’t offer in person because of time and site constraints. We feel this exceeds the learning experience from an in-person course alone. \nSee the full description... \nYou can sign up here. \n
