Our Goals

Please spend some time reflecting on your motives for taking the course and what you hope to receive from it. Our goals as facilitators are the following:

- Maintain an inclusive and positive learning environment

- Cover the core curriculum while incorporating student and facilitator expertise and interest

- Facilitate experiential and action learning as a community

- Create systems for feedback so we can better serve student needs

Our Learning Community

FLPCI believes that each person has inherent skills and gifts to share. As a result, we design our courses to cultivate a community where we learn from each other and the natural landscape. The instructors facilitate progress through the curriculum and endeavor to find a balance between the curriculum and the specific interests of participants. In doing so, we aim to illustrate the promise of a permaculture network as a localized response to a myriad current cultural issues.
