Designing Your Next Permaculture Project — Sat 7th November | 2:00PM - 5:00PM

Join Mangaroa Farms for a Permaculture Design Workshop that goes well beyond the garden patch. This afternoon session introduces you to permaculture as a design tool for life itself — your community projects, your business, your relationships, even your next family meal.

We'll explore the design process together, then apply it to real situations in small groups. You'll learn to use permaculture ethics as a lens: Is what I'm doing caring for the planet and people? Is it ensuring a fair share of resources? This isn't about following recipes — it's about principles, careful assessment, and truly listening to what each unique situation needs.

When you reach a crossroads in life, whether chosen or unexpected, the permaculture design tool offers a framework. A scaffold for moving forward with intention, embracing diversity and care, and making good use of your time and energy.

This is an introductory session. The topic is as vast as life itself, and as diverse and magical as the natural world around us.

We'll gather in the garden if weather allows, otherwise in the Whare Kai. Expect circle work and small breakout groups where we'll learn from each other's experiences.

We will begin at Sat 7th November | 2:00pm at the Mangaroa Events space at 298 Whitemans Valley Road.
