PERMAKULTTUURIN SUUNNITTELUN PERIAATTEET Permakulttuurin Suunnittelun Periaatteet David Holmgrenin mukaan: 

01 - OBSERVE AND INTERACT – TARKKAILE JA VUOROVAIKUTA Toimiva suunnitelma syntyy luonnon ja ihmisten välisestä harmonisesta vuorovaikuksesta, jossa huolellinen havainnointi ja tarkkaan harkittu toiminta tuottaa halutun tuloksen. Hyvä suunnitelma syntyy jatkuvan vastavuoroisen vuorovaikutuksen myötä, se ei voi syntyä eristyksessä ympäristöstä.

Hur skapar vi en skogsträdgård? Första frågan till gruppen: Vad kan ni om detta?

• Folk tror att det är en skog som man planterar i. Men viu skapar den från ingenting, non?
• En skog vi skapar med ätliga träd, plantor och olika arter
• Foof forest: Matskog vs Forestgarden: Skogsträdgård
• Många lager, funktioner, element...
• Mat skog är lite fel benämning. Vi skapar ett skogsbryn med ätliga plantor. Man bahöver kunskap om skogens succession för att skapa en bra design. 90% skogsväxter --> över tid 90% matväxter

Klara Hansson delivered this 'micro-teaching' session on 25 Sept 2013 at the Spain meeting of the European Permaculture Teachers Partnership. Klara shares a lesson plan below for providing this session yourself.  Just below, find a video of the session shot and edited by by Mihail Kossev.  

Klara Hansson presented a technique for breathing that will keep you healthy, balanced and focused. The technique is to first breathe deeply into the stomach, then fill the middle area around the ribs with air and finally breathe into the top area of your lungs by moving shoulders and head backward to open the chest to its maximum. That's a big breath! Let the air pass through the throat making a little sound and stimulating the body's uptake of oxygen.

A video recording of the session follows:

Feedback provided by participants:

Decomposers of simple organic matter, nitrogen fixers (in symbiosis with plants). They also cause diseases in plants, animals and funghi. 

Funghi – Decomposers of more complex matter eg wood, they help move nutrients and information around underground to different plants, they are also pathogenic sometimes. 

In this session, I use Open Space Technology as an inspiration to design a session about the teaching of the design principles for large groups, where some of the participants may have some prior understanding of them, and can help the others who don’t.

Opening question: The teacher asks if the students know the ethics of permaculture, and if they can explain what they mean for them. Afterwards, the teacher summarises the main points, and can add some comments as appropriate.
