Planning the Sustainable Homestead

Course Overview

When it’s time to build a sustainable homestead, talk is cheap – it costs quite a bit less than mistakes, missteps and oversights. But planning, observation and visioning are often given short shrift. How do we make decisions on what to do? Where to put plants, collect water and produce energy? Not to mention aesthetics. This workshop will explore the planning/visioning process: maps, overlays, exercises, books, and teaming. Oriented for the practical homesteader who wants to save time and money while using quality design, participants will learn steps, tools, strategies and questions that can ground and lead a homestead planning process forward.
