Full Permaculture Design Course on the Isle of Man Course Leader: Rod Everett Assisted by: Mill Millichap
This was last held at the site of the Native Oak Group from Friday 7th to Sunday 16th September 2007 . Our costs were kept low as this is a camping based venue. The basic facilities included a large and beautiful yurt classroom, a field kitchen, interesting compost toilet, solar pumped shower etc. Local participants were encouraged to camp on site rather than leave for home each evening.
The beautiful location is complimented by a backdrop of the Manx hills beyond the woodland and is just a ten minute cycle ride from the beach.
