Practical Permaculture Course in Uvita, Costa Rica. August 5th-14th 2011. Learn adobe and ferrocement building methods while residing at a tropical organic farm in the coastal mountainous rainforest of Southwest Costa Rica. As a group we will construct a large earthen oven and a ferrocement water tank. These building methods are ecologically friendly and take advantage of local materials. Move closer to self sufficiency by collecting and storing rain water and bake your own bread and pizza. Course is hands-on so come prepared to get dirty and work hard. Your instructors will share both the theory and practical skills you need to learn these two exciting green building techniques. Contact [email protected] for more information. Course is being put on by the Uvita Tropical Studies Institute www.utsi.org and the Permaculture Institute of North America www.permaculture.org.
