Understanding water patterns and capturing water on your landscape is fundamental to a good homestead. This workshop will cover water harvesting techniques such as swales, rain gardens and rainbarrels and give examples of successes that have been achieved on properties across the world.

Testimonials
"What a great introduction to the underpinnings of permaculture along with hands on, go-home-and-use information to shape your own garden." - MP
"This was an incredible class. The information was clear, questions got the time they needed and some hands-on application was provided, I would recommend for anyone." - JB
"I love learning from Kareen because she knows her stuff, teaches with warm enthusiasm and engages me in new ideas. She really cares about permaculture principles and the best ways for us to coexist sustainably." - SH
"Though I grew up in gardens, and have made several myself, I came away from the Permaculture Design Series with an energizing way of looking at not just gardens, but the whole property. I had been putting some of the pieces together over the years, purely by chance, but now I understand much better how to deliberately design garden spaces that are healthier and a lot less work for me.
