Courses and workshops

We have a whole schedule of exciting courses and workshops planned for the year ahead, with an amazing selection of guest teachers and collaborators, both online and in person here at the farm.

We run a range of courses in permaculture education, both online and in person on the farm. North Pembrokeshire is an amazing place to come for regenerative education: steeped in a long standing local culture of land based living, we are surrounded by fascinating homesteads, One Planet Development projects, eco-villages, organic gardens and community projects. We are also incredibly fortunate to be right in the middle of a National park with long sandy beaches and clean seas, spectacular rugged coastline, ancient SSSi Oak forests, ancient iron age hill forts and charming characterful villages.

We make the most of this abundance on our residential courses by using the incredible natural environment for our study wherever possible and visiting a variety of specialist guest teachers in our local area. There is also ample time out for beach visits, mountain hikes and starlit campfires. We hope to make our education as accessible as possible for everyone, so for those with families we offer camping for your partner/caretaker and children whilst you are on a course with us.
