Brighton Permaculture Trust courses

[james.lea]

Brighton Permaculture Trust are running some permaculture courses over the next six months - here are some details.

Permaculture is a superb subject and one which I strongly recommend to all those concerned about how we can thrive after Peak Oil. I attended the Building Sustainable Communities course in 2004: see my write up at http://www.greenliving.co.uk/Permacultu ... ourse.html.
