What does this course cover?

- In this course we will give you all the information you need to get started with growing food, even in the smallest of spaces.
- You’ll learn essential information, such as healthy soil - needed to grow healthy abundant crops without costing the earth - information that’s often missing from horticultural courses and the Introduction to permaculture.
- Information on Food Sovereignty - and how communities can take control of their food systems!
- There will be lots of no screen time, and we will provide you with a workbook to apply your learning throughout the course.
- Once you’ve completed the course, you’ll be ready to grow your own food and love eating it.
The content for Growing Food in Small Spaces has been created by many expert permaculture teachers in collaboration with the Permaculture Association learning team (who brought you the well reviewed Introduction to Permaculture course), bringing you a course that draws from a wide variety of experiences and knowledge.
Abi's course sessions are complimentary to the online course materials. She will walk you through additional topics such as perennials and cycles to dive deeper into understanding nature and how this applies to their small spaces.
She will support you with your course materials as needed in the live sessions, but will focus on supporting you to understand your space.
