It's not Easy Being Green (course)Have to say that the course was enjoyable and meeting Dick, Brigit and James was wonderful. They are very enthusiastic and beautiful people. The only 'down side' is that I feel that the courses are quite expensive at £165 and I believe that is considerably more expensive than other day course (although I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong!). I paid a mere £50 to plough with horses! Having said that I was given information that I needed and it has made me rethink how to go about being off the grid and what type of renewable energy I need.Becky |

Glad you enjoyed it. Course costs vary incredibly from the upper end like the River Cottage ones to stuff like the ones I went to at www.agroforestry.co.uk which at teh time were £90 for a weekend including lunch and snacks. I suppose it's what you get out of it that matters. |

Which course did you go on Beckyess - was it the wind turbine one?
They do sound a tad expensive - you get value for money here http://www.greenwoodcentre.org.uk/ |

I went on the sustainable living for the 21st century one. An overview of how to be greener I suppose you could say!!
