WATCH "INHABIT" FILM TRAILER: http://fingerlakespermaculture.org/?p=3495

Ten years ago in the Northeast one could barely find a permaculture class,
much less a site that demonstrated permaculture principles and techniques in
action. Today there is a very different story emerging, and examples abound
of permaculture applied to farms, gardens, urban environments, social
systems, and more.

In 2013, filmmakers Costa Boutsikaris and Emmett Brennan took a journey
around the northeast and midwest U.S. and combined their eye for beauty with
their passionate interest in permaculture to create a feature length
documentary: INHABIT.

The film presents a vast array of projects, concepts, and people translating
the diversity of permaculture expressions into a message easily understood by
an equally diverse audience. To those familiar with permaculture, it will be
a call to action and a glimpse into what’s possible; what kind of projects
and solutions are already underway. For those unfamiliar, it will be an
introduction to a new way of being and a new way of relating to the Earth.
For everyone, it will be a reminder that humans are capable of being
planetary healing forces.

INHABIT will be screening at the Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival
(FLEFF) in Ithaca, New York on Thursday, April 9th. The FLEFF Festival
embraces and interrogates sustainability across all of its forms: economic,
social, ecological, political, cultural, technological, and aesthetic. This
year their theme is HABITATS. “Environments inhabited by animals, plants,
organisms, minerals, fungi, bacteria. Terrains, waters, atmospheres defined
by layers, relationships, and complexities surrounding the human and the
nonhuman. Ecological systems offering sustenance and life.”

The event is co-sponsored by the Finger Lakes Permaculture Institute (FLPCI)
and includes a segment with their cofounder Steve Gabriel, who maintains
Wellspring Forest Farm alongside his wife Elizabeth in Mecklenburg NY, where
they produce maple syrup, mushrooms, and raise ducks and sheep, while seeking
to restore the landscape to a healthy state. Steve--along with Ken Mudge of
Cornell University--is also the author of "Farming the Woods" a book
recently published by Chelsea Green Press. After the film, join them along
with Director Costa Boutsikaris and FLPCI Board Member Becky Sims for a post
film discussion about permaculture and related projects and events in the
Finger Lakes Region.
