Permaculture provides aframework for consciously designed landscapes that mimic the patterns and relationships found in nature. These systems yield an abundance of shelter, water, energy, and food for the provision of local needs that provide diversity, stability, and resilience for local populations.

Cathe’ Fish, a drylands Permaculture Design Consultant since 1987, will take the principals of Permaculture and teach you how to apply it to your backyard.  She has traveled the world studying and teaching the principals and has an upcoming course, March 12-20, that provides for the Permaculture Design Certification.  Come out to GRUB (note the earlier times than usual) to learn more!
