In this workshop Adam will introduce some permaculture design processes for creating harmonious connections between people and landscape for thriving, abundant, productive gardens. We'll consider designing to the elements (e.g. sun, shade, water, soil), the people, and how to make beneficial connections between garden features, to lowering effort while raising productivity, and creating edible ecosystems.

Other parking options are generally the north and south sides of Hoddle Street, in Gipps Street and in the parking zone at the end of Islington Street.
