The course is run by PermEco Inc. and is taught by international permaculture teacher and consultant Tom Kendall. Your Permaculture Design Certificate is recognised and well regarded world wide. Our residential course (at Kendall Permaculture Farm) is capped at 20 students\, depending on Covid regulations. \nWe involve our residential Permaculture Design Certificate course students in some of the running of the farm and include a lot of hands on activities. As a Permaculture Design Certificate student you will be involved in the daily routines that come with running a Permaculture farm and living in a community style environment. This is why we limit our residential course intake to 20 people per Permaculture Design Certificate course only. Learn to milk a cow\, separate cream\, make butter\, cheese and yoghurt\, feed our biogas bio-digester\, look after chickens and goats\, see holistic animal management in action\, make compost\, survey the land for earth works\, eat healthy food produced on the farm and much\, much more!

We have noticed a marked integration of the curriculum and concepts with the introduction of practical components. \n \nYou will be required to bring food to the farm for shared meals\, you may be able to purchase some farm grown produce during the course for meals. We will provide a schedule and divide the group into teams\, so that everyone will get a turn doing the various activities required to keep the farm and the temporary community running. Jobs will include fire lighting for hot water and rocket stoves\, emptying compost toilets\, animal feeding and care\, harvesting\, preparing meals etc. The middle weekend is time off. You may want to stay on the farm or you can enjoy some of the sights in the area like Noosa National Park and beaches\, lakes\, Noosa trail network\, Rainbow beach and much more. \n \nDuring the Permaculture Design Certificate course you will be immersed in farm activities\, from holistic animal management to feeding the biodigester\, cream separating to yoghurt making and compost making to food forest planting. As this is a working farm with a lot of systems\, everyone on the property can be fully involved in farm activities to get the most out of your stay at the permaculture farm and the Permaculture Design Certificate course. The practical activities also allow you to integrate the theoretical course material quicker. We ask everyone to arrive in the afternoon of the day prior to the course (Sunday)\, so that we can give you an orientation that day to make for a smooth transition into the course week. \n \nTom Kendall is a permaculture farmer with over 40 years farming experience.
