Designers' weekends - who should attend

Northern School Permaculture design event participants

These events are a great opportunity for people who want to get to know a wider network of like-minded people, including those who are interested in improving land use and quality of life. 

Who should be there?
  • anyone interested in learning how to do land-based design using an ecological approach, leading to sustainable outcomes
  • those who want to see how environmentally-friendly methods and appropriate technologies can be made to be productive and cost-effective
  • graduates of a permaculture design course who would like to do more design work – particularly those who have decided to work towards the Diploma and want to work on designs to put in their portfolios
  • people who are exploring design and permaculture and are considering taking it further, perhaps by attending a permaculture design course
  • those who want to gain some practical experience of design before doing work on their own projects.
