Lower North Island - Permaculture Design Course - Urban, Social & Cultural

16/04/2011
17/04/2011

11. Urban Living
Over 80% of the developed world’s population lives in cities that are dependent upon the countryside for water, food, building materials, power etc, and to absorb all the waste. With energy descent and resource depletion impacting on our economy, we look at more appropriate and sustainable ways of living in cities. We cover the challenges of living in the city, the opportunities for suburban retrofitting, co-housing and urban farming, adapting apartment living and reducing your ecological footprint, building urban eco-communities, and urban layout and development.

Lower North Island - Permaculture Design Course - Energy & Built Environment

02/04/2011 9:30 am

9. Energy & Appropriate Technology
Our way of life is based on finite, non-renewing resources. We will look at the importance of energy, and the nature of energy sources, flows and processes, and the implications of an energy descent. Then look at more appropriate technologies, and how to become more self reliant and energy efficient. This will include the methods of science and its application, energy use analyses, conservation, demand reduction and the use of renewable resources and local energy alternatives.

Lower North Island - Permaculture Design Course - Home gardens, Forests & Wilderness

13/03/2011 9:30 am
14/03/2011 5:30 pm

7. Home Gardens of Trees & Small Animals
The most productive home gardens are an integrated mix of food trees, shrubs, herbs, and small animals. We cover the basics of backyard food production, from the design and layout of an orchard, to the use and care of small animals. This includes the selection of species for climate and site characteristics, the layout and spacing of trees, planting, propagation, maintaining soil fertility and plant health. Also the importance of small animals in pollination, manuring and recycling within the orchard, and the management of these animals.
