Step into a living system

This is not just a course.
It’s an immersion into a different way of learning, living and designing.

For two weeks, participants are invited to experience permaculture as a living system — through practice, observation and collective life. From morning to evening, learning unfolds across the land, in shared spaces, and within the group itself.

This full-immersion format allows you to go beyond theory and develop a deeper understanding of how ecological and social systems actually function.

What you will learn

The course follows the internationally recognised Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) curriculum, extended to 90 hours to include essential contemporary topics.

You will explore:

• Ecological design and systems thinking
• Soil regeneration and water management
• Agroforestry and regenerative food systems
• Climate-responsive design
• Natural building and low-tech solutions
• Social permaculture and governance
• Economic models for regenerative systems

Throughout the course, theory is directly applied to real systems on the farm.

Learn by doing

Learning is grounded in practice.

Participants will:

• Take part in hands-on workshops
• Observe and analyse real systems on site
• Visit inspiring projects in the region
• Work in groups on a real-life design project, presented at the end of the course

You may bring your own project or contribute to another.

A full-immersion experience

The Ferme du Bout du Monde is a regenerative farm, a learning space and a collective living experiment.

During the course, participants live on-site:

• Shared accommodation
• Three vegetarian meals per day (local, organic, seasonal)
• Access to common spaces and farm infrastructure

Living together is part of the learning process. It allows for deeper exchanges, stronger connections and a better understanding of collective dynamics.
