_____________________________

Dear Permaculturists --

In 2009, Becky Elder, Jason Gerhardt and I are convening a Permaculture 
Design Course in the panhandle of Nebraska, at the request of local 
residents.

We are seeking someone who produces food on the high arid plains using 
Permaculture design principles, strategies and techniques, especially on 
large-scale acreages.

Are you -- or do you know someone who is -- demonstrating some or all of 
these on the high arid plains:
     Windbreaks and earthworks
     Soil regeneration
     No-till systems
     Perennial polycultures
     Integration of plants and animals
     Diversity
     Productivity
     Economic sustainability
on a large scale (preferably over 100 acres)?

If so, please give me a call!  Farming experience is more important than 
teaching experience -- our teaching team will support you.

Our teaching team will be visiting the proposed site in Nebraska next 
week, and giving an introductory presentation to local residents on 
Tuesday, February 10th.

Thanks so much for your assistance!
