2023 Porvenir Design Workshops and Courses

Join the Porvenir Design team in 2023 as we co-create the following workshops and courses. Our courses are usually facilitated in both English and Spanish and we have put considerable thought into making them affordable and accessible for the Costa Rican permaculture community in particular.

In particular this year we are excited to partner with Nat Mugent of Sitio Semente and Jorge Espinosa of Collectivo Waybill for a Syntropic Farming Formation Course. See below for all the course links!

For information about any courses, in Spanish or English, please write to
