Earthworks Course
20th - 31st July 2026
Earthworks is the foundational first step of any long term project and unfortunately often a non-regenerative plague that haunts modern human civilisation. Moving earth is something humans have done since the very dawn of human life, shaping water courses, enhancing opportunities or leading to ruin. In this course we will learn how we can harmonise land shapes to natural water flows so that human settlements can be actively regenerative.
