Introduction

Hi We are a new Permaculture Institute here in NC's Piedmont--We Are All Farmers. Just had a very successful sheet mulching workshop (25 participants) in Winston. Our goal is to extend permaculture into many "not-your-usual-suspect" communities.

What would you like to learn from this group?

What needs there are in NC re: permaculture. Making new friends. Extending the permaculture community.

What can you share/teach others in this group?

My husband and I both have our PDCs. Edward also has advanced permaculture teacher training, a food forest training, and nine years of experience as small operation commercial farmer in Iredell Co. in the 1990s-2000s before there was much or any organic in this section of the Piedmont. We are especially interested in the "invisible systems" of permaculture. I have a long history in education, activism, and nonprofit--and also bring a systems awareness to those practices through permaculture.

Why did you join this group?

Looking to connect, looking to share, looking to learn!

  • Hey there,
    As much as I'd like to attend and process some duck, Jacq is back today and we have a deadline looming for our housing partner to move in, I have sneaky suspicion that we will be going flat out till we get it done. Thanks for the offer.

    I will be out of town till Saturday night unfortunately, otherwise I'd be there! Could I possibly come help out next week? Monday? Tuesday? I have work exchange scheduled for Sunday at the yoga studio.
