Introduction to Permaculture and Live Design Charrette with Matt Lynch in Haiku

Introduction to Permaculture and Live Design Charrette with Matt Lynch

Maui Makers is pleased to offer this two day Introduction to Permaculture and Live Design Charrette on a 2 acre homestead in Haiku HI.

A "Design Charrette" (shuh-ret) is an intense period of collaborative problem-solving and design activity.

Day 1 will consist of an Introduction to Permaculture class, a combination of classroom instruction & group work to limber everyone's designing muscles up.  We'll also do a site walk / tour and discuss basic constraints and design goals of the case study site.

Day 2 will be a hands-on design day, beginning with 'Methods of Design' & 'Conventions of Design' sessions to equip participants with the basic tools to begin designing.  You will work with a small team to co-design for a real-life scenario based on the site in Haiku.

Class will be held 9am-5pm Sat March 9 and 9-5 Sun March 10 on-site in Haiku (Maui) Hawaii.

Water and juice will be available. Bring your lunch, bring to share.

General Public price for the weekend is $100.  Members of Maui Makers (maui's makerspace) get a 15% discount ($85).

Directions to location will be provided via email to registered participants.
