Creative Sustainability - Permaculture Design Brief

In this lesson, students will discover ways that they can incorporate permaculture into their own designs and develop the details around a designed solution. Students work in groups to conduct an assessment of the site chosen for their project, and then develop a design brief to communicate the details of their design. Students share their designs with their class through a gallery walk format, giving an opportunity to view each other’s work. This lesson can be taught using a site at school or your local community and can be run as a hypothetical or, even better, as a real project.
