permaculture

["Robert Waldrop" <bwaldrop@cox.net>]

We still have some openings for the Oklahoma City 
permaculture workshop, June 23-24-25.  June 23rd 
will be an evening presentation, it will be all 
day Saturday and Sunday until about 4 or 5 PM. 
Saturday will start about 9 AM, Sunday about 10 
AM.

This is a weekend journey to explore the basics of 
the permaculture design process.  Students will 
work on a permaculture design for a central 
Oklahoma City urban property.  The group will be 
divided into teams, each of which has a specific 
aspect of the design to prepare.  Through this 
experience, you will learn the basics of the 
permaculture design process.

The instructors are Dan and Cynthia Hemenway, of 
Elfin Permaculture, a project of the Barking Frogs 
Permaculture Center in Florida.

There are 3 components to the workshop:  (1) an 
introductory slide show which illustrates 
permaculture applied to many different areas, (2) 
Class work with discussion, and (3) design work. 
Following the workshop, on Sunday afternoon, 
participants will have an opportunity to discuss 
and ask questions about their own projects.

There are some required readings.  More 
information is available at

Tuition is $100 if you send your $30 deposit so 
that it is postmarked April 1 or earlier.  We have 
scholarships (full and partial) available.  We can 
provide housing for people from out of the area.
