Twin Cities Urban Permaculture Design Course Set
Minnesota Ag Connection - 02/15/2017

Big River Permaculture will present a unique Urban Permaculture Design course (PDC)which incorporates and expands on the standard curriculum with the addition of more than 25 hours of hands-on activities, lectures, design exercises and dynamic guest speakers. This PDC emphasizes urban permaculture, Minnesota--specific strategies, and social justice in their work as permaculturists.

Presented in a series of six 2-day classes, one weekend a month from April through August, the course includes multiple opportunities to visit permaculture and urban farm sites in the Twin Cities and around the state. Guest presenters include Dan Halsey, Sam Grant, and Land By Hand.

In addition to traditional lectures and hands-on projects, the course will provide opportunities for learners to intern at sites, help launch new gardens, and visit places on their own time. Sites we'll visit include Thiel Gardens, Open Arms Farms, and Sisters' Camelot, just to name a few.
