Greetings all,
Our 12th Permaculture Design Course begins again in LA on the weekend of Oct 6 and 7th. Please tell your friends!
Please help us spread the word- as we continue to provide, low cost educational programming -with local and global impacts.
Actual Real-Life Projects...
Our training offers you a life-changing and career-enhancing program. In addition to EarthFlow Design Works' great teaching team (with years of innovation and teaching experience!) we have lots of local speakers joining us this year. Optional field trips and hands-on learning opportunities are also scheduled.
This year's design team projects will continue to design the home of The City of Angels Permaculture Academy at the historic Cafe/Club Fais Do Do on West Adams- complete with kitchen/cafe and event space -and so much potential!
Hands-on learning opportunities are also available with sustainable landscape construction projects in Topanga and Malibu Canyon.
We are pleased and excited to work in cooperation with Kelly Budding of the LA Unified School District, who has assembled a collaborative of designers including from the UCLA Landscape Architecture Dept, Cal Poly Pomona, The Trust for Public Lands and others- for The Green Alley Project in South LA- making our city's streets safer- and greener! We will also be supporting another EarthFlow alumnus, Cassi Martinez, with The Garden School Foundation's project in East LA.
We depend on you (and appreciate your help!)
Please pass on the info below to your family and friends- and receive a $100 commission when your friends and family add your name to the notes with their full-registration.
Donations in any amount, can be made payable to our fiscal sponsor: The Terra Foundation.
Thank you for supporting Permaculture in Los Angeles.
As always, feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or concerns,
Larry
