The Burbsteading course is a 3 week online course where you will learn how to design our own suburban homestead using permaculture design principles. From plat to finished design, you will complete the three weeks with plant and project lists, a design by you, as well as a plan to implement the design and an online community for support.

Every class is designed to be a step towards family homestead and simpler lifestyle. The workshop will have some "Make and Take" aspect to it and would be perfect for a parent and older child (11+) to take together. You learn more if you "do" and will have a better chance to for future success.
