Permaculture Design Course - two-week format - in Cornwall, England

A two-week residential course at Aranya's home that focuses on home-scale permaculture and provides an overview of its application in many other aspects of our lives.

The venue has been home to Aranya and his partner Jules since the end of August 2019. They are working on transforming the site into an great example of applied permaculture design. Set in the Cornish countryside, two barns have sat on the site for about 200 years. The land outside the barn extends to almost a half acre - not much from a conventional food production perspective, but more than enough for two people to steward without the use of machinery. 

Aranya and Jules are putting a strong emphasis on home-scale food production and perennial planting, including a small forest garden. The site consists of a number of small areas, each with different microclimates, offering a diversity of opportunities. It is hoped that everyone who visits will be able to observe an area similar to their own garden to explore options of what can be done in such a space. 

The fee includes all tuition, course materials, site visits, certificate and food. Various accommodation options are available on-site (bed in room, camping, bring your own live-in vehicle) at variable extra cost (see website).
