Beginning this fall, the Center for Bioregional Living will be offering students who have already completed the PDC course an opportunity to participate in an ongoing, advanced permaculture graduate program that will be oriented towards developing a commercially viable bioregional design team. Students will explore and cultivate the skills necessary for integrating permaculture concepts into the North Atlantic Coast and Northern Piedmont bioregions.
Each semester will include 3 specific, hands-on site visits followed by open discussions and follow-ups. 4 full day, in depth classes will be conducted by Andrew in alternation with 3-4 independent study sessions. Students can further collaborate through the Google group format, develop areas of focus individually and organize additional meetings as needed.
