El Manzano sets out to build a campus of the great reskilling, implementing a permaculture master plan, and a summer of bioconstruction. So ends a cycle of change, and another cycle begins.
Since 2009 we have been working on the plans to make El Manzano a world class centre for sustainable education that equips people with the values, knowledge and skills needed to make the transition from an unsustainable growth culture to resilient human communities. As we begin
to attract more and more visitors students and interns our facilities
are often found to be lacking, and not of a quality befitting a green campus.
This weekend workshop is designed to support the student to understand the principles and practice of bio-construction and intensive food gardens. You will have the opportunity to learn simple theory, to work on a straw bale house, and to implement an organic garden. Join us on a tour of four design sites for survey and analysis on Sunday and Monday.
