RV Permaculture 2026

What are your permaculture objectives and how can this meetup better support your goals? How about a permaculture festival? One is in the works for July 4th (see below). We will be brainstorming for 2026 meetups after some introductions and a recap of national, regional and local activities.

Announcements:
A new field practice opportunity with Tillson Arts & Ecology will begin this spring. Apply both physical and conceptual techniques to your process by working with natural patterns and utilizing onsite materials. Begin observing your own surroundings now to prepare for learning and applying fundamental principles as each season unfolds. Sessions will be held Tuesdays & Thursdays as soon as weather allows. More details TBD.

An alternative 4th of July festival based on permaculture's embrace of interdependence & relationship will be in the workshop stage through the end of January. Along with educators and wellness practitioners, creatives of all kinds are invited to make proposals by messaging the Organizer (Claudia) through the meetup system. Food and crafts vendors and those willing to offer hands-on demonstrations are encouraged to respond. Gathering community in July is a long-standing permaculture tradition in our region that was interrupted by the pandemic lock-down. Now feels like a good time to re-group and make visible our knowledge, skills and gifts.

This January 13th meetup will be an opportunity to pitch proposals and brainstorm spontaneously. Does an empowered community of teachers and learners who share knowledge freely interest you? Face to face interactions sustain our humanity and improve our ability to exchange knowledge, goods and services locally. Abundant social and cultural capital are in view for 2026 as we strengthen our web of relations in our already vibrant and interdependent communities.
