Leave the noise of the city behind and join us at Jordan Eco-Park this new year to experience true regeneration through our permaculture retreat.

Nestled in the North of the Jordan Valley lies a little gem of a forest, overlooked by Jordan’s oldest dam and brimming with biodiversity. This is where you’ll be reawakened to the true nature of human beings, that of a caretaker, a steward of Earth - khalifa al ard.

Inaya Permaculture is organizing the very first permaculture retreat of its kind in Jordan. We’ve designed this workshop to meet everyone’s needs and help you guide through all the practical steps needed to start your own project.

Aimed at anyone wanting to reconnect with natural ecosystems and incorporate these skills into their own lives, this exceptional seminar will be led by some of the best international specialists in permaculture: 

• Rhamis Kent has been a recognized voice in Permaculture for more than 10 years, having taught numerous courses all over the world while presenting the “Repairing the Earth” serie on IQRA TV and featuring, among others, in the INHABIT movie.

• Thomas Fernley-Pearson is an international NGO consultant with a 20-year + experience in designing and implementing Permaculture projects, including 7 years at Palestine’s first eco-village. He’s also the author of the book: Agroforestry for Palestine (download it for free here).

• First as a couple and now as a family of 4, Antoine Bernardeau & Kadidia Sanogo have been making their own transition from city dwellers to permaculturists for the past 7 years. Having left their native Paris in 2012 for a 3-year, 5-continents, plane-free farm tour of the world - and backpacking to Hajj in the process - they’re now established in Jordan since 2015, regularly teaching and consulting in both Europe and the Middle East.
