This weekend was our OKC Permaculture Weekend Workshop taught by Dan and Cynthia Hemenway of Barking Frogs Permaculture. http://www.barkingfrogspermaculture.org . It was a great experience, although very exhausting. Our schedule was: Friday night, 6:30 - 10:30, Saturday, 8:30 AM to 10:30 PM, Sunday 9 AM 50 6 PM. 19 people showed up and we did good work. The design site was our property, and after lots of slides and a morning of lecture and discussion, the group reviewed the present draft of my design report and were divided into four teams. Each team took a part of the draft and after a site walk and presentation, went to work. We got a lot of really good ideas out of the workshop, and the group is interested in continuing our relationship and work on a "barefoot permaculture" program to help people design their own properties. Everyone seemed very satisfied with the experience, although everybody was also pretty exhausted. But it was like the tiredness you get after useful manual labor, there was a good feeling in the midst of the tiredness.

Bob Waldrop, OKC
