[Lapg] {Path to Freedom} - Latest Events/ Happenings

[Dervaes]

Greetings friends!

We've had major computer problems since the start of June and weren't able to send out updates on upcoming events here at Path to Freedom nor have we had a chance to answer the many emails that have been coming in.  In our "Inbox" we have over 75 unanswered emails and we apologize for the inconvience, we hope to answer them as soon as we can.  Thank you for your understanding and patience.

For those of you who missed the Open Homestead Tour on Sunday June 6th, you can fill out a tour reservation form at www.pathtofreedom.com/tourform.htm and we will let you know when the next available tour date is.

Path to Freedom will be having a Cob Oven Workshop and would like to gauge the interest before finalizing the date.  If you would like to attend or are thinking of attending please contact us.  

In addition, Learning How to Spin Using a Drop Spindle workshop is planned. Any interest?

Furthermore, how many of you would be interested in attending renown New Zealand permaculturist and educator Robina McCurdy workshop & slideshow in late August -- again please let us know.  This will help us determine if more, or any, publicity is needed for these events or if some of these workshop need to rescheduled due to our not being able to get the word out these last few days.

For those of you who expressed interest in attending future homebrew biodiesel workshops, we hope to schedule one in late summer or early fall after all summer homesteading projects and plantings are completed.

Looking forward to hearing from you.  Thank you in advance for your participation.  ~ Anais ~
