The Lyons Farmette, Schey’s Bouquets and YummyYards are thrilled to offer a two-week Permaculture Design Course Certification at The Lyons Farmette, located in Lyons, CO from March 18 – April 3, 2011. The course features an intensive 82-hour immersion into permaculture principles and ecological design, featuring 14 diverse, dynamic and experienced Colorado permaculture teachers, including Jerome Osentowski, Marco Chung-Shu Lam, Adam Brock and Pavlos Stavropoulos (co-facilitated by Laura Ruby and Erin Schey).

Through a combination of lecture, discussion, hands-on activities and on-site group design projects, you will learn how to observe ecosystems and design regenerative systems that provide food, energy, shelter and community. Engage in the revolutionary act of self-empowerment and discover how to build resilient human communities that care for the earth, provide for people and create a surplus for all to share.
