Time commitment

We want you to get the most out of this course, and this will require a little time commitment between sessions… and as we are guiding you through a design project of your own you will need to set aside a little time each month to complete your tasks. This will vary depending on how deeply you would like to go into the process, but we would recommend putting aside about a half day per month.

Location and facilities

The course is to be held here at Cynefin farm, our 7-acre smallholding and permaculture education project in the North Pembrokeshire national park, beside the mountains and the sea in a wild and beautiful location. The site of an old long abandoned and re-wilded garden centre, we have been living here for the past 5 years and are slowly – and with deep observation and care – weaving ourselves into the landscape. Whilst still in the early stages there are a range of projects developing here to explore, including no dig gardens and the beginnings of a small diverse CSA growing project, an indoor and outdoor forest garden, and examples of a variety of regenerative agriculture techniques employed to repair and build the soil and grassland habitats. Due to being left to grow wild for so long and its location in a national park, Cynefin farm is blessed with a huge variety of biodiversity and is a haven for wildlife.

Lunches on the course are provided with local, fresh and organic food, supplied both from Cynefin farm and local producers. Breakfasts and evening meals need to be organised individually, and there will be access to a kitchen for those staying over. Tea and coffee are freely available throughout.
