Day 11 of our Change Makers Permaculture Design Course.
This morning we had Frances Michaels from @greenharvestgardening to give us the drop on integrated pest management and Robin Clayfield (permaculture pioneer and Crystal Waters resident) facilitate a session on group dynamics.
And then for the afternoon we had participants form their teams for the final design project.
Taj Scicluna @thepermapixie and @barefootjaye taking them through design processes, creating base maps and getting on site looking at a real life community project proposed for right here at Crystal Waters.
Day 10 of our Change Makers Permaculture Design Course (PDC).
After a day off yesterday for rest and integration we dropped into another day of potent sharing.
One of the founders of Crystal Waters Eco-Village, Max Lindegger gave us a tour of his place and some insight into the care he gives his bees to produce award winning honey.
We then got into bioregional analysis with Annaliese Hordern and Taj Scicluna (@thepermapixie ), and dove into local food resilience systems.
And for the afternoon session we had Barefoot Sustainable Design - Jaye Irving give us the fundamental design principles behind truly sustainable housing and sharing some of the stories behind his award winning designs.
Drop after drop, the incredible learnings and upgrades for this batch of Change Makers is non-stop.
