Permaculture principles are most often seen applied in the external parts of our lives, in gardens and food systems. Does permaculture offer wisdom for our inner world? What if we applied permaculture to our personal lives, like our health, intellectual and emotional life, career, relationships, and more?

Join permaculturist Jen Andreani as she shares her journey of applying permaculture philosophy to every area of her life. In 2020 Jen found herself in lockdown in the middle of a global pandemic, physically cut off from the many community and social connections she had built for mutual aid. She realized she had focused on the resilience of her garden, social networks, and external world to meet her needs, but suddenly without them, she found herself stressed, anxious, and depressed. She paused to envision and completely redesign her life inside and out using permaculture and within a couple of months she went from burned out to flourishing. She'll introduce the framework she used to increase her inner resilience and ability to quickly bounce back and become strong, healthy, and successful no matter what comes her way.

BIO: Jen Andreani is on a mission to help people and the planet flourish.

Jen is a certified permaculture designer, Lifebook Leader, resilience coach, yoga teacher, and lifelong learner. Using an intuitive, whole-systems thinking approach, Jen helps people apply intentional, holistic design philosophy to their lives and organizations.

Potluck at our farm! As farmers, we're very conscious of the seasons; they're very much a part of our lives. Winter solstice is a time when plants are drawing in and going dormant, but will soon start coming to life again. We use this time to harvest and enjoy our fall and winter crops, but also to plan, celebrate, and deepen relationships in the community.

So if you would like to celebrate regenerative, ecologically friendly living with us, come on down. We'll share some exciting developments for growers and farmers in the area, give you a short tour of our farm (which will be in winter mode), share a meal and get to know each other around a fire.

4 PM for tour and short briefing, 5 PM celebration starts

Bring a dish! Bring something locally grown or with locally grown ingredients if you can! We're looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones. Bring a drum or instrument if you wish.
