Heating with wood - A course covering how to obtain your wood, cutting it, storing it, how wood burns, moisture content, stoves - new, home made, and much more.
Low-impact smallholdings - this course covers finding suitable land, buildings and planning permission, managing the land, the infrastructure needs, environment and ethics, paperwork and legal considerations for people wanting to establish smallholdings.
Self-build solar hot water - a course which shows you how to make your own solar hot water system - you will walk away with a completed solar hot water system that you can install yourself.
Building with straw bales course - straw bales are relatively cheap and fast to build with and also have huge insulation values which means you get a very warm house.
