Biodynamic Permaculture, DATES TBA
Led by Avalon's on-site Permaculturist and Biodynamic practitioner, Patrick Garretson, this two day introductory workshop is the first of its kind, fusing two of the most successful and proven methods of organic, sustainable agriculture. Topics covered include a synthesis of the basic principles of Permaculture and Biodynamics, wholistic water treatment, biomimicry in the garden and site design, and the human being as an integral element in ecology.
