Dan Hemenway Permaculture Design Weekend Workshop

Grow Permaculture is pleased to present a rare opportunity – a 
Permaculture Design Workshop by Dan Hemenway, veteran permaculturist with more than 30 years of experience teaching and applying permaculture in Florida and around the world. Dan will take students through the design process at a typical suburban home. This is an opportunity to gain valuable insights from the top veteran permaculture designer in Florida in an infrequently offered in-person workshop.  The Friday evening lecture that launches the workshop will be open to the general public for $20.

In the workshop, Dan will cover some basic and important aspects
and tools of design and walk you through the site to go over specifics about 
the potentials of that site. You will get to participate in the process of a design, and will be exposed to tools and ideas that you will be able to use on your own property.

The workshop will remain intimate and has limited enrollment so 
please register early to reserve your spot. This workshop is expected to sell out early.
