A weekend introductory course

Trosnant, Llandrindod Wells
Weekend of 7th/8th October 2017

This course will be repeated on the weekend of 24th/25th March 2018.  Please contact us (details in the leaflet) to reserve a place.

The weekend course will introduce Permaculture and show you how Permaculture Principles can be applied to garden scale growing.  The course will cover practical gardening matters (such as soil, compost, green manures, rainwater harvesting, companion planting and propagation) and there will be some hands-on sessions outdoors, mulching beds and planting Polyculture vegetables.

The course will be led by internationally acclaimed Permaculture teacher Chris Evans and will run from 9:00am to 5:30pm on each day plus an evening session on the Saturday.  The cost has been kept as low as possible and will be £45 for the weekend.  Numbers are limited and advance booking is essential to avoid disappointment.

Feedback on the previous course:

I loved it all!! It was a perfect mix of theory and practical.

Excellent pacing by Chris - a lot of information but not overwhelming.

Your chance to say a big "Thank You and Well Done!" to someone who is making a difference in our community

We know Llandrindod is brilliant, and so do you, but not everyone knows about all the things going on that make it so! The aim of Llandrindod Well Done is to

  • Celebrate and raise the profile of all the good stuff that is happening here
  • Let each other know about the wealth of talent and opportunity there is in our town
  • Learn about how different people and groups have been so successful at what they do in the community
  • Make new connections which could help us all be even more brilliant
  • And most of all, say an enormous Llandrindod Well Done!
