Here is some info on the first annual Arizona Permaculture Convergence!

Subject: Az Permaculture Convergence Update

Hello,
Here's an updated schedule. Hope to see you!
Andrew Millison

      The time has come for an Arizona Permaculture Convergence! With
all of the shifts that are occurring on earth right now it is
important to recognize and utilize our existing resources. Many of us
have learned the language of the desert and have responded to her
voice, the voice that has revealed to us the many pathways that lead
us to caring for her as well as our families and communities. It is
important that we come together in Arizona and let our voices be
heard. We will take this opportunity over these two days to solidify
our connections with those that want to share and represent Arizona
and the abundance of life that exists here. We are blessed with the
many contributions that this convergence will capture. Let's open our
eyes and our hearts to the power of this movement right here in our
own backyard!
