Portugal
" Welcome to Casalinho e Escabelado, in the beautiful mountains of central Portugal “
WHAT IS PERMACULTURE? "Permaculture is a sustainable design system that provides for human needs while having positive effects on the surrounding environment. It is based on the ethics of earth care, people care and fair share, and provides practical solutions to the global crises we are currently facing."
" Permaculture is for EVERYONE, regardless of their education, background, or previous experience. Permaculture is NOT just about trees, or just about gardening! You don’t need loads of land to practice it and it’s a design method that can be applied to all social systems. Whatever your plans for the future, the Permaculture Design Course will give you the perspective and tools required to find positive solutions towards a sustainable life."
PDC course students work together to dig swells along contour of the surrounding land to aid water catchment and overall efficiency of the available natural resources.
