[Lapg] Permaculture at Pine Ridge

[Cory Brennan]

To add to Warren's great article on the permaculture course at Pine Ridge, Permaculture Guild is planning a series of workshops in partnership with Oglala Lakota Revitalization Initiative on different permaculture topics next year at the reservation, including straw bale, wind towers, and much more, in addition to another permaculture design course next fall with Warren Brush as the instructor. We are in the process of designing a sustainable education center that will focus on indigenous knowledge - the classes will put some of the infrastructure there.  This is a beautiful place to learn permaculture skills; there have been so many magical moments on the reservation - we have been welcomed with open arms by the Lakota who are warm and generous hosts.  2010 schedule to come soon!
