Marble House Project will host an intensive six day Permaculture seminar and workshop with Rhamis Kent. The workshop will be staggered over two long weekends at The Marble House in Dorset, Vermont. The workshops span two weekends from May 9th-11th and May 16th-18th, 2014.
This course will be taught by Rhamis Kent, a permaculture consultant, designer and teacher with a formal training in mechanical engineering and permaculture-based regenerative whole systems design. Rhamis trained extensively in Australia at Geoff Lawton’s Zaytuna Farm (PRI Australia) where he took his PDC, followed by: Permaculture Earthworks, Permaculture Teacher Training, Permaculture Aid Worker Training and a permaculture Internship with Geoff. He has since taught and engaged in project consulting work in Detroit, Palestine/Occupied West Bank, Syria, Greece, Turkey, Western Sahara, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya, and Yemen.
His training at PRI Australia led to his involvement with design work connected to the development of Masdar City in UAE after Mr. Lawton and his consulting company (Permaculture Sustainable Consultancy Pty. Ltd.) were contracted by AECOM/EDAW to identify solutions which fit the challenging zero emissions/carbon neutral design constraint of the project.
