SUMMARY:5 weekend PDC course
DESCRIPTION:Permaculture Design Certificate Course\nLearn Permaculture on a Self Sufficient Permaculture Farm\nPRI accredited 72 hour Permaculture Design Certificate course\, a high quality course run by us since 2012 on the self sufficient Kendall Permaculture Farm. This course runs over 5 weekends and is by donation\, whatever you can afford.\nThe Permaculture Design Certificate is a 72 hour theoretical course based on Bill Mollison’s Designers Manual. It teaches how we can use today’s tools and technology to create a more sustainable and equitable world for all species. Permaculture is more than just gardening\, it is a design system for a truly sustainable and self sufficient lifestyle. The course is run by PermEco Inc. (previously known as  Permaculture Research Institute Sunshine Coast Inc.) and is taught by international permaculture teacher and consultant Tom Kendall. Your PDC certificate will be recognised and well regarded world wide. \nWe try to cater to individual needs of the students based on their travels of the permaculture journey. There will be some practical components in this course. \n \nDuring this PDC course you will be introduced to farm activities\, from holistic animal management to feeding the bio-digester\, from compost making to planting and more. As this is a working farm with a lot of permaculture systems\, introduction to the systems encourages better integration of the PDC course information. \n \nTom Kendall is a permaculture farmer with over 40 years farming experience. He is co-founder of the PRI Sunshine Coast Inc (now PermEco Inc.) and PRI Luganville\, Vanuatu and teaches Permaculture courses on his Permaculture Demonstration Site Kendall Permaculture Farm. Tom has co-taught PDC courses with Geoff Lawton and has taught Permaculture courses in Australia and overseas. He has been a PRI (Permaculture Research Institute) accredited teacher for 5 years and is part of our environmental advisory team and Geoff Lawton’s Permaculture Consultants team\, doing regular consultations for local and international land owners and NGOs.

Tea\, coffee and hot water will be provided. For those from further afield we can provide basic camping facilities for the weekend\, but you will need to bring your own food (fridge available).
