The Lyons Farmette, Schey’s Bouquets and YummyYards are ecstatic to offer a two week Permaculture Design Certification Course at The Lyons Farmette, located in Lyons, CO from March 19 – April 3, 2010. The course features an intensive 82-hour immersion into permaculture principles and ecological design, featuring 18 diverse, dynamic and experienced permaculture teachers and professionals from the Colorado Front Range.
Through a combination of lecture, discussion, hands-on activities and on-site group design projects, you will learn how to observe ecosystems and design regenerative systems that provide food, energy and shelter. Engage in the revolutionary act of self-empowerment and discover how to build resilient human communities that care for the earth, provide for people and create a surplus for all to share.

 We are on a steep, south-facing hillside, so we built a series of terraces for a vegetable garden, plus some additional cratered-scallops for a fruit tree orchard. There's no greenhouse just yet, but that's part of the grand plan, as is a berned-in chicken coop for hens that we already have. The coop should be done by winter, for sure... right now the ladies have a temporary structure.
