Permaculture part of coursework at the University of Minnesota

Posted by Daniel Halsey about 12 years ago

After some years of working my way up the academic ladder (not far up really) and making permaculture a common topic, it is now a main component in a graduate horticulture course I will be teaching next summer.

To Hort Seniors and Master of Professional Studies:

Attention, a new Polyculture Design course has been approved in ECAS and is now on the Summer course schedule.

APS 5101 001 class number 88579


APS 5101, Polyculture Design, 3 credits, limited to 20
Prof. Tom Michaels and Dan Halsey
May term - Aug. 1, 2013

Polyculture design is the design science of assembling plants into ecologically balanced systems. Natural polycultures are self-supporting plant communities in forests, wetlands, and prairies. Investigate ecological functions and services that are important components for sustainable horticultural design. Learn to apply the ecological landscape design language and technique while using the permaculture design process to create ecologically functional plant communities. Crucial discussions will assess the solutions in horticultural design for adapting to accelerated climate disruption, and follow natures momentum as a guide to sustainable production systems. Lab sessions will demonstrate, and you will develop, the skills and foresight needed to assess, research, concept, design, and present polycultures in a sequential and professional process.
