permaculture

[Rhonda Baird <rk.baird@yahoo.com>]

Joao, 
Thank you for sharing this workshop in Portugal which is a lovely offering. 
I’ve heard that the permaculture network in Portugal is growing, but I would 
love to understand it better. Might you be able to characterize it a bit for 
those of us not in the area? (I realize that is a request which might prompt 
a very subjective answer, but I’m still curious.)

best, 
Rhonda Baird
Bloomington, IN
