Sepp Holzer's Secrets of Eden Workshop Series

 From February 20th - March 14th, 2009, Sepp Holzer and his son Joseph Andreas
will visit the United States, imparting The Secrets of Eden in a series of
talks and workshops in Western Washington State and in Oregon.
Locations include:  Seattle, Morton, Yelm, Snohomish, Clark County, Portland,
and more!

For more than 40 years now, Sepp Holzer, the agricultural rebel has been
transforming his family farm in the Austrian Alps into an eco-paradise of
fishing ponds, ten thousands of fruit trees, shrubs, vines and highly
productive vegetables and herbs without irrigation, fertilizers, pesticides or
weeding.

Not only did he create his own farming methods based on the observation and
understanding of nature, known as Holzer Permaculture, he also has been
fighting for the right to practice and apply it on his own property. For many
years now, he has been involved in lawsuits against the authorities, fighting
ever more restrictive EU regulations, which make it harder and harder for
organic family farms to work and exist. Yet in his own country, the Austrian
authorities have actually modified some of there laws to reflect the reasoning
he has confronted them with.

Sepp Holzer has become famous far beyond the German-speaking world. Sepp also
acts as a consultant to a large number of projects all over Europe and the
world, including Scotland, Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, and Thailand, creating
new croplands from depleted soils in harsh and difficult conditions.

Sepp Holzer is also the author of several books, one of which, The Rebel
Farmer, has been translated into English. Two DVDs, Sepp Holzer's
Permaculture and The Secrets of Eden, have just become available in the United
States at http://www.perma-dise.com/ ;.
