Sustainability education

At Beyond Buckthorns we host different types of sustainability courses - often permaculture related. Dominik is a biogas specialist, permaculture diploma holder and the creator of the PermaPuheet - an online lecture series. Lumia is into regenerative gardening, food forests and social permaculture. We also host lectures and workshop of friends at our place.
