http://hort.oregonstate.edu/2011_Permaculture_Courses http://www.beaverstatepermaculture.com/events/permaculture-design-course-1 Back to school! This 3 week Permaculture Design Certificate Course can be taken for college credit through Oregon State University. This course takes place on campus where we are establishing demonstration gardens within this Land Grant University’s undulating fertile valley location. We blend classroom lecture with hands-on, field trips, observation and design exercises, and top-notch guest instructors to cover the core Permaculture curriculum and ever expanding teachings. Convenient and bike friendly in-town location, while in the heart of the Willamette Valley and its beautiful rivers, farms, and forests.
Learn the full cycle of the Permaculture Design System: observation, assessment, design, implementation, and feedback. Learn design at scales from homestead to village to city, and yard to neighborhood to farm. Permaculture design is the roadmap to a sustainable civilization, so come get your bearings and head this way.
Class is Monday-Friday, with weekends off.
Instructor: Andrew Millison with guests Jude Hobbs, Marisha Auerbach, Heiko Koester, Mark Lakeman, Tao Orion, Mike Hatfield and others
Field Trips to Portland City Repair, Aprovecho and others
