We run a number of courses and training programs. Here’s a selection of recent courses:
True Cost Accounting Workshop – 10 and 11 March 2017
This special workshop was conducted together with a member of the Henley Business School. Participants were given the opportunity to take an analytical investigatory look at the true costs of various farming practices. The main comparisons being between resource-based ethical farming practices, and those that are focused purely on financial profit, looking at only direct costs while excluding environmental and social costs. |
Basic Permaculture Course
Bi-monthly Saturdays 25 March till 24 June 2017 The Basic Permaculture Course was jointly organised by a member of the local community and Rosendal Permaculture Centre. The course objective was to introduce participants of all ages to the basic principles of permaculture. The workshop was structured and presented in a simplified and interactive manner to facilitate the philosophy and practice of Permaculture and its Ethics of Earth Care, People Care and Surplus Share. Participants received certificates at the end of the course and various small-scale planting initiatives have since been undertaken by some learners at their homes. |
