Village Alchemy: Permaculture Strategies For Transforming the Urban
Environment
With Mark Lakeman & Marisha Auerbach

This presentation will provide a detailed, "how-to" overview of numerous
"repair" strategies that engage local communities in the re-visioning and
re-creation of cities and neighborhoods. Drawing from City Repair models
such as "intersection repair" and 'block repair", we will learn numerous
principals and strategies for building local community networks, developing
urban agriculture systems, and numerous other concepts for grassroots-style,
sustainable urban transformation.

"...the greatest change we need to make is from consumption to
production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of
us do this, there is enough for everyone.

Hence the futility of revolutionaries who have no gardens, who depend on
the very system they attack, and who produce words and bullets, not food
and shelter." - Bill Mollison
