I became interested in Biological Farming methods and implemented these on my own farming property with great success. Having completed a Holistic Management Course with Bruce Ward I became aware that there was so much more to learn and actually put into practise to be able to increase sustainability and production while becoming self sufficent. Permaculture attracted my attention as the whole answer to people care, land care while at the same time helping communites.
After completing the PDC with Geoff Lawton I am now hooked on creating sustainable communities, designing and consulting, and providing education and Wwoofing on my own property Edenfarms Permaculture at Lansdowne NSW Australia. Courses are held frequently, teaching Portable Sawmilling, Beekeeping and Earthworks.
Dave Spicer International PDC teacher will be presenting this course at Edenfarms Permaculture on the 23rd and 24th June 2012.
