Designing Farms of the Future!-Brooklyn Permaculture Meetup

Designing Farms Of The Future!

The desire for high quality, deeply nourishing foods and livelihoods lead us to EF Schumacher’s phrase ; small is beautiful: economics as if people mattered. In addition, we are designing agriculture and energy, supplies and buildings as if people mattered. A core principle in our design approach is to scale down our production base and put quality above quantity. We will see that there are issues around quality control that naturally arise from doing things at too large of a scale.

Brooklyn Permaculture Meetup
Every Third Friday at The Commons
7pm-9pm
$5 Suggested donation - no one turned away!

Permaculture is a whole systems design science that is positively changing the way people think and interact with Earth. Turn problems into solutions by joining us in the discussion, design and implementation of projects in and around Brooklyn and the surrounding region. We are looking to create an active group of motivated beings that want to contribute to all the positive change that is happening in our region and the world. This Meetup will be lead by Andrew Faust and occasional visiting friends. Andrew is director at Center for Bioregional Living which since 2007 has been training permaculture designers in NYC and starting June 1st 2012 at their rural campus in Ellenville, NY. A certificate in Permaculture Design is very helpful but not necessary. Click HERE to join Brooklyn Permaculture Meetup.
