    workshop

Join us for a 5 day workshop to learn about various earthworks construction including restoration of lakes, dams, gabion erosion and agroforestry soil preparation.

Permaculture Earthworks is about moving soil to capture water and shape its flow as it moves through a landscape, making the land more useful, valuable, and productive.

  • How to select strategies for erosion control and slope stabilization

  • How to create diverse and resilient landscapes that support biodiversity and sustainable food production
