> I'm flying over to the US mid August this year.  I would like to do some
> Wwoofing, or work with Permaculture-based organisations.  I run my own
> Permaculture property here in the Adelaide Hills, so have some practical
> skills to contribute to projects in the States.  I have also completed the
> training required to teach Permaculture, and would be interested in being
> involved in Permaculture education in the States.

> My background experience is as follows:
> - working with chooks, and presenting training on caring for chooks in a
> Permaculture environment;
> - training in the areas of communication and interpersonal relations;
> - working with small animals in a Permaculture system;
> - writing for Permaculture publications and editing the Permaculture
> newsletter here in South Australia;
> - working with and writing for children;
> - all aspects of managing a small Permaculture property;
> - living a no-electricity, no car existence;
> - existing on a very small budget;
> - working for an organic food co-op;
> - campaigning with a community group around anti-nuclear issues;
> - working with a government department.

an

> I would appreciate it greatly if you could pass this email on to any of
your
