This interactive workshop weaves together foraging, food growing, readings, practical gardening, walking meditation, land regeneration, horticultural and wilderness therapies and more.

Permaculture provides inspiration, an ethical foundation and practical solutions towards life-affirming futures. One of the main ways this is done is through designing and re-designing our lives.

This 1-day face-to-face small group interactive workshop focuses on a range of approaches to design – choices, decisions, planning, choice-making. This can be literally for anything and any aspect of life. Participants will learn and practice a range of tools, creative processes and approaches to designing for life.

With Charlie Brennan, Uncle Michael Jarrett & Ilka Schroeder

1-day workshop exploring Permaculture from the perspective of lives of mobility and movement from place to place.

How can we engage meaningfully with the land while we’re on the move? How do we design and practice sustainable lives when we are on the move?

One-day workshop exploring Sense of Place and Ecopsychology for gardeners, conservationists, educators and people concerned about our planet.

Sense of place, very high on scale of human needs, is bound with identity and feelings about belonging in the world. It’s a way to find our place in the world, a body of literature and an essential design tool. Through a series of practical and imaginal explorations, we will provide tools and support to illuminate your sense of place and ultimate desires to reconnect.
