Learn how to live and work with nature while minimizing energy use and conserving resources—all within the ethical foundations of permaculture: Earth Care, People Care, and Fair Share. At the heart of permaculture lies the design process—a practical, adaptable approach that can be applied to everything from a garden or farm to a household, small business, or community project. In this hands-on workshop, Tess Wilmot will guide us through the core principles and steps of permaculture design, using engaging practical exercises to bring the process to life.

Tess Wilmot is a permaculture designer and facilitator and started working with community gardens in 2008. Her work is mainly in Plymouth, supporting community growers and building capacity and skills using permaculture and co-designing projects.
