placed these pamphlets in the public domain so that they may be freely
used and

As of July 1, 2003, we offer an "economy" version of The
Permaculture Design Course CD, the CD-ROM that we use in teaching our online
course.  The new version includes our Self-Study CD consists of about 200 
teaching
"posts", formerly sent to students as email, and an assortment of support
folders. [The full version also includes more than 30 papers and pamphlets, 
examples
of standard and full designs, a book, our permaculture directory, and the
opportunity to register as a monitor in our online course at no additional 
cost.]

Version 2.0 of The Permaculture Design Course CD is available.  It
includes updated and enlarged weekly teacher posts and notes as well
as several outside reading publications now included right on the CD-ROM.  
There
are two sub-versions, one for certificate students and the other for monitors
and other self-study students.

We have room for two interns at Barking Frogs Permaculture Center.
This is regarded as "permaculture boot camp."  Interns may take our online
course free to the extent that the course and their internship overlap.
Download our intern FAQs from our web site for details.


Version IX.2 of TRIP (The Resources of International Permaculture)
is now available on CD-ROM or as a special order print out.  See our order
form for details. TRIP lists nearly 2,000 organizations worldwide concerned
with sustainable living and of interest to permaculturists.  We designed it
to permit computer searches by keyword, or searches by name, region, or
type of work done.
