Permaculture or Permanent Agriculture is the conscious design and maintenance of agriculturally productive ecosystems which have the diversity, and resilience of natural ecosystems. This deliberate design is based on the ethics of caring for others and creation while cultivating a fair share for everyone.
This course will bring a wholistic perspective on agriculture and development centered around a biblical approach on permaculture. Our goal is for you to understand permaculture as an option for interacting with creation in your sphere of influence. This will help to equip the people you are working with to utilize their resources and to design abundance into their farming systems. Classes will be structured with hands-on activities, interactive lectures, and on-farm learning.
