At Roots n Permaculture, we offer practical, ethical, hands-on workshops exploring low-impact cooking technology and ecological design. The focus is on learning by doing in a respectful, community-oriented learning environment.

Why Cook Stoves and Biochar Matter

Efficient cooking systems help reduce fuel use and environmental pressure while supporting regenerative soil practice through biochar production. Participants learn how controlled combustion can be used safely and productively at small scale.

What You Will Learn

• Biochar production principles and carbon cycling
• Improved cook stove construction
• Rocket stove design fundamentals
• Heat management and safety awareness
• Hands-on practical building experience

Course Options

One-Day Biochar Cook Stove Course

This workshop introduces biochar cook stove design and construction. You will explore how managed combustion can produce biochar while delivering efficient cooking heat. The emphasis is on safety, ecological awareness, and practical making.

One-Day Rocket Stove Course

The rocket stove workshop explores high-efficiency combustion design that minimises fuel consumption while maintaining strong thermal performance. Participants may build working prototypes and learn core design principles.

Who This Course Is For

• People interested in sustainable living
• Permaculture learners and practitioners
• Community project organisers
• Smallholders and homesteaders
• Anyone interested in practical ecological technology

Participant Feedback
