Permaculture Workshop - The Farmhouse

Join us for a one day workshop focusing on practical and simple choices and changes we can make to live more harmoniously with nature. Explore household and garden strategies to increase our community capacity, self-reliance and resilience.

The workshop provides an engaging introduction to the principles and techniques of permaculture, and ways to live ecologically in frugal abundance. You will participate in hands-on gardening activities, composting, tending the soil, planting seeds and seedlings and foraging edible and medicinal weeds.

Your facilitators are a multi-generational family collaboration. David Arnold teaches from over three decades of applied learning, teaching and consulting. Leila Alexandra supports others to live a simple and wholesome life through nature-based growing and foraging practices. Grace Arnold and Andreas Alexandra will explain how their lifestyle is a form of activism and how they converted their urban rental into a thriving community hub and abundant food garden in less than one year!
