SUMMARY:Online Permaculture Design Course July 16
DESCRIPTION:Many requests have come in asking us to offer an online version from people whose schedules don’t match up with our in-person courses or who prefer to study online. This course can be studied at your own pace\, with a focus on your own site design. Creating the opportunity for a participatory and hands-on experience is important to us\, so we include practical exercises that you perform on your own site. In addition we will have live Q and A sessions and personal mentoring with instructors and you will be able to share your experience with instructors and other students via photos\, essays or videos. \nWe have added some exciting learning modules to the online version and other extras\, including units with experts covering various topics. The course will address strategies for drylands\, temperate\, tropical and other climates based on the significant knowledge and experience of our instructors working in those climates and will also have bonus sections focused specifically on Florida/subtropical climate because of how unique the ecosystem is in Florida. Many of these techniques are very useful in multiple climates and we explain how and why. \nStudents will have an opportunity to self-test their knowledge\, to join discussion groups with other students\, to participate in question and answer sessions on Zoom (online video conference software) with instructors\, and to get feedback from a personal mentor. In addition there are in-person modules for those who want that\, and special sessions we normally can’t offer in person because of time and site constraints. We feel this exceeds the learning experience from an in-person course alone. \nSunday the 16th is a welcome meeting for Q&A at 1pm (EST)\, the first Zoom call is on the 18th at 7pm and once a month for a year\, and is recorded. \nSee the full description... \nYou can sign up here.

SUMMARY:Jan 26\, Webinar: Design Your Life to Be Resilient Inside & Out
DESCRIPTION: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?\n \nJoin 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.\n \n\n\nBIO: Jen Andreani is on a mission to help people and the planet flourish.\n\nJen 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. She has several years of experience as a transformational facilitator in business\, nonprofit\, and community settings. \nWith strengths such as innovation\, creativity\, and the ability to relate new ideas in unique ways\, Jen helps her clients come up with personalized\, effective\, and integrative strategies to reach their goals and live their ideal life. She empowers people with the tools to be strong and resilient in all areas of life\, not just one or two. \nJen is grateful to have been featured in the 2021 award-winning film\, "Coming Home: Natural Living in a Modern World" at the Sunshine City Film Festival.

SUMMARY:Jan 19\, Webinar: Permaculture and Prosperity
DESCRIPTION:The foundations for building true wealth are outlined in the major permaculture texts\, but we don't pay nearly enough attention to them. Let's take a deeper dive together and explore the tools outlined in permaculture that can help us cultivate true wealth and financial resilience. Live Q and A after the presentation.  \nLaura Oldanie is a green living and wealth coach\, who blogs at RichAndResilientLiving.com\, where she explores money and lifestyle choices for a regenerative future. Her goal is to help people achieve financial freedom and live their best lives in socially and environmentally conscious ways that equally value people\, planet\, and profit.

SUMMARY:2nd Online PDC Course

We want healthy food\, a clean environment\, and security for us\, our children and future generations. This course offers practical steps to achieving these things in your own life\, regardless of your circumstances. \nIn this course you will learn: \nHow to apply permaculture techniques to design your life.\nHow to grow your own food abundantly and sustainably.\nHow to increase your own abundance and quality of life while helping to heal the planet.\nHow to create and deepen beneficial connections with nature and with other people.\nHow to create a career using permaculture. \nWe have gotten many requests to offer an online version from people whose schedules don’t match up with our in-person courses or who prefer to study online. This course can be studied at your own pace\, with a focus on your own site design. Creating the opportunity for a participatory and hands-on experience is important to us\, so we include practical exercises that you perform on your own site. In addition we will have live Q and A sessions and personal mentoring with instructors and you will be able to share your experience with instructors and other students via photos\, essays or videos. \nWe have added some exciting learning modules to the online version and other extras\, including units with experts covering various topics. The course will address strategies for drylands\, temperate\, tropical and other climates based on the significant knowledge and experience of our instructors working in those climates and will also have bonus sections focused specifically on Florida/subtropical climate because of how unique the ecosystem is in Florida. Many of these techniques are very useful in multiple climates and we explain how and why. \nStudents will have an opportunity to self-test their knowledge\, to join discussion groups with other students\, to participate in question and answer sessions on Zoom (online video conference software) with instructors\, and to get feedback from a personal mentor. In addition there are in-person modules for those who want that\, and special sessions we normally can’t offer in person because of time and site constraints. We feel this exceeds the learning experience from an in-person course alone. \nThere are additional in-depth materials offered for each section of the course as well as a resource list where you can find more information on that topic and explore areas of interest more deeply. \nEach student will complete a permaculture design of the site of their choice\, working through it step-by-step to ensure you have an understanding of each step of the process.

DESCRIPTION: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'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. \n4 PM for tour and short briefing\, 5 PM celebration starts \n\n\nBring 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.

SUMMARY:Graduation Reunion 2021
DESCRIPTION:We are going to have the GP graduates event on the first weekend of December (4 & 5). \nThis weekend opened up and it is a time when most of you could come. It is also slightly less likely to be cold that weekend than later. \nIt will be the entire weekend\, but we'll focus on Saturday for those who can only come one day. We would like your input on co-creation (see below)! \nYou can camp on-site\, we have compost toilets and showers (which most of you have seen). Please\, bring your own food\, dishes\, pots and pans\, ice\, and prepare to be fully self-sufficient. We won't have room to store cold foods for everybody. We will have an outdoor stove\, coffee and tea maker\, things like that. If you want to bring enough to share with some others\, please do! We'll have a central area for camping stoves\, etc. We plan on having a fire Saturday evening in the fire pit. \nWe would really appreciate some volunteers to help with things such as the compost toilets\, and cleaning up after the event. We can also use some people who could come up a day or two early to help us set up. That will help us want to do this and other events regularly (as much as we love to see you guys\, cleaning up after a crowd can be quite a task)! \nIf you have a special skill you'd like to share\, let us know.\nIf you have ideas for group actions\, let us know.\nWe want to make this a co-create! \nWe are really excited to see you again and catch up!! And have ya'll meet those you haven't met yet\, network\, etc. \nAnd please feel free to bring others with you\, the vast majority of those who responded to our survey were fine with bringing others. You can bring kids but will have to be fully responsible for them. We won't have any capacity to watch out for them or help watch them\, and there are aspects of our space that are not kid friendly. All we ask is that you let me know that you plan on coming and how many in your party? \n** Use my email (steve at growpermaculture dot com) to communicate on this subject\, and if you want to coordinate with others I will forward emails as needed to those of you who volunteer to help. \n** If you can help out please notify me via email and I'll do the coordinating.
