Permaculture Design Course/Leuwit Advanced Topics Skill Share

The Classic PDC is 72 hours of lecture topics. Skillshares are typically hands on with a focus on technical aspects of design solutions; we will focus on advanced topics. We will combine these two powerful forms of learning at Abundance during August.

The Permaculture Design Course aspects of this months Offering will be explored Monday thru Thursday, while the Skill share will take place Saturdays & Sundays. Cost of both PDC and ATSS will be $1200. Interns with 2 months of service at Abundance will attend without fee. Weekend skillshare registration will be on a potluck donation basis, with limited availability. From experimental plantings and construction to alternative economics, all the while sharing primary skills for the feral at heart, we'll explore the PDC with a "hands on the project" emphasis. Temporary shelters, tracking, bird languages, wilderness tools, coppicing, tool making and maintenance, greywater and aquaponics systems, homesteading skills, animal husbandry, natural building, and more.
