Toby Hemenway, author of the bestselling book on Permaculture, returns to Los Angeles to discuss our sustainable futures and his new book, “The Permaculture City” (Chelsea Green).
Urban and suburban living, according to Hemenway, is one full of abundance and not concessions using our proximity to others as a strength instead of an obstacle. The first step is recognizing our own “ecology” of personal connections with each other. This invisible network rivals the physical infrastructure that surrounds us in Los Angeles and strategies to harness it for wellbeing is illustrated by anecdotes, case studies and throughly researched practicum by Hemenway.
The talk is followed by a book signing and light refreshments. A $10 suggested donation goes towards Kiss The Ground, a non-profit dedicated to regenerative agriculture.
