Dear Friends,

If you are looking for fertile land on 6.5 acres to garden organically and expand with field crops & grazing animals bordering a good size creek, with beautiful perennial gardens, woodlands, meadow, small orchard, massive oak trees and a quaint 2 BR 1800's farmhouse, I am offering such a place.

Rent could start immediately. If you are interested, please contact me. (See contact info below). To see some photos, go to:
http://angelamanno.com/sla/gallery.html. I would be happy to provide additional info and photos.

The location is New Lebanon, NY, right on the border of Massachusetts, near Hancock and Pittsfield. It's on the borderline of the Berkshires and Hudson Valley, near the Abode of the Message, a Sufi community and great resource for all kinds of things.

Thanks so much. I loof forward to answering any questions.

Angela Manno

One thing that concerns me about Gaia University is that although the
Accreditation page talks a lot about accreditation, it basically takes a
long time avoiding a simple acknowledgment that it's not accredited
anywhere, with anyone.

So it may or may not be good quality education - I don't know. I wouldn't
rule it out for not being accredited, though that will be a legitimate
concern for some students. But I like dealing with people who talk straight
and share honestly - promoting their services in this evasive way turns me
off, personally speaking.

What is Gaia University?

Gaia University is a growing institution for higher learning with a
unique approach. Our students ('associates') are able to earn
accredited Bachelors & Masters degrees and Graduate Diplomas while
actively engaged in self and planetary transformation and ecosocial
regeneration.

How it Works

Gaia U is based on a methodology called Action Learning and is guided
by the principles of Earth Care, People Care, & Fair Share. Within
that framework, associates work on self-selected, self-directed
projects anywhere in the world they choose, documenting their outcomes
and learning process along the way. Throughout their program, they
are supported by an international network of learning providers,
advisors and mentors and a collaborative online e-learning environment.

Cultivating World Changers

By fusing passion and vision with self-directed practical experience,
associates initiate and nurture local and global sustainability,
regeneration, justice and peace. At the same time, they refine their
skills and deepen their experience to become more effective world
changers.

For those wanting to integrate ecological and social aspects of design

Venue: Sustainable Farm Institute, U.S. Virgin Islands



The Virgin Islands Sustainable Farm Institute is over one hundred
acres of rolling green hills and valleys nestled in the highlands of
the northwest corner of St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands. VISFI
promotes the development of agroecology: an innovative field of
agriculture that enjoins productivity with resource conservation by
using ecological and indiginous management models to create
sustainable life systems. We believe local, organic agriculture and a
practical educational experience are the first steps toward building
vital communities and achieving long term sustainability within a
healthy environment. These beliefs have led us to the establishment of
our Four Pillars: Education, Sustainability, Community, and
Environment. We use these focal points to guide decisions that will
promote our farm=92s vision. For more information visit www.visfi.org


Instructors & Facilitators

The Orientation will be lead by Gaia University co-founders and co-
presidents - Andrew Langford and Liora Adler.



Andrew Langford and Liora Adler have spent the last 35 years working
to create projects and tools to address the personal, social, and
global transformation of our times.

Andrew brought Permaculture to the UK in 1986 and initiated the
Permaculture Association of Britain, as well as the Permaculture
Diploma WorkNet upon which the design of Gaia University is based. He
has been active in the European permaculture and ecovillage networks,
is a member of the European Permaculture Council and has served on the
European Council of the Global Ecovillage Network.

Liora has focused on the human architecture underlying ecovillages and
other social change groups. She has shared her experience and
knowledge in 30 countries, as a member of the Board of Directors of
the Global Ecovillage Network, its representative to the UN, and as a
co-founder of two ecovillage projects in Latin America, Huehuecoyotl
Ecovillage in Mexico and La Caravana Arcoiris por la Paz, a mobile
project now, ending after 12 years.
