This one day Introduction to Permaculture Design workshop is run by Marshall Design Studio as part of the Auckland Modular Permaculture Design Certificate Course (Module 2). Anyone is welcome to attend any or as many of the modules as desired. No previous permacuture or design experience is required.
Module Two, Landscape Analysis and Design is an introduction to ecological landscape design. You will learn to sample soils, use basic design tools, read landscapes, map and record ecological and space based information and design with nature. We will directly apply the day’s learning to a practical design activity requiring participants to use what they have learned. This module is for those who are interested in developing practical skills for place based design. Also, for those interested in completing a Permaculture Design Certificate it is one of the five required modules.
Course content includes:
Observation and interactions with nature and the landscape; Landscape and site and sector analysis including - topography, hydrology, ecology, soil, micro-climates; Understanding and working with external influences, variation, and change; Landscape management; Integration of uses; Site specific design with nature – designing for place.
