Updates and Announcements:
1) Scholarships are available to help you attend the convergence at whatever cost you can afford. Please contact us at [address removed] for registration instructions!
2) The Kids Schedule and Program for Saturday July 14th has been added! Check out the full day of wild crafting, nature walks, games and workshops for kids here: http://northeastconvergence.wordpress.com/welcome-to-the-permaculture-convergence/2012-kids-program/
3) Crowdsourcing Summer Abundance – Food at the Convergence – due to the generosity of folks attending this year’s convergence, we will have local fresh and fermented food throughout the entire weekend to share and supplement what y’all bring to eat. Consider bringing something with you from your backyard or community to share and help us practice permaculture ethics at this event; Earth Care – People Care – Fair Share!
4) The schedule is fully updated here: http://northeastconvergence.wordpress.com/2012-schedule/ We’ve added presentations on DIY Solar from George Mokray, Community Permaculture from Julious Piti from Zimbabwe, two social permaculture courses from Elyssa Serrilli and David Eggleton, and a new workshop slot at 5:30 – 6:45pm to accommodate more sessions and give the opportunity for folks who arrive later on Saturday to attend as much programming as possible.
*It would greatly help the planning team and volunteers on site if you can register prior to arrival – you’ll help us save paper and time by filling out the forms and paperwork online.
Thank you for your support and hope to see you this weekend!
