This retreat is an incredible opportunity to have fun, experience
garden living, and learn practical skills you can apply in the real
world in your own home and backyard, or in your wider community. You’ll
learn how to create sustainable, thriving human systems, from green
houses and organic gardens, to local micro-economies and communities,
using sustainable design principles that are applicable to every human
system, from businesses, communities, and cities to personal
relationships.
