YEAR 2002 HERBACULTURE WORK/STUDY PROGRAM
Herb Pharm is proud to offer our HerbaCulture Work/Study Program on our 
certified organic herb farm nestled in the Siskiyou Mountains of southern 
Oregon.
The program runs from March 25th through July 19th. Approximately 30 hours 
per week (Monday through Friday) are spent working and learning farming 
techniques in fields, greenhouses, educational display garden, landscapes 
and barn areas, and 10-12 hours per week are in the classroom. Work 
involves participation in the cultivation and harvest of the over 85 
medicinal herb crops grown on our farm. Students also assist in the 
maintenance of our 1.5 acre Herbal Education Garden and other landscaped 
areas. The work is hard and physical, often repetitive, and the weather can 
be cold and wet, or very hot. It is essential that applicants be in good 
physical condition and mentally prepared for hard work.
Classroom training involves many aspects of organic farming and herbalism. 
Topics include: organic farming techniques, permaculture, plant 
identification, plant spirit medicine and the cultivation, harvesting and 
therapeutic uses of medicinal herbs. Occasional overnight trips are 
scheduled, including a seaweed harvesting foray. There will also be local 
farm tours, and wild herb identification walks.
Teachers include: herbalists "Herbal Ed" Smith, Deborah Frances, N.D., 
Richo Cech, Sara Katz, Christopher Hobbs, David Bunting, James Jungwirth, 
and Thorin Halvorson; permaculture consultants Randy Carey and Tom Ward; as 
well as local farmers and other guest herbalists.
There is no monetary fee for this program. We provide communal housing with 
shared rooms in a large modern house on the farm. Participants will be 
responsible for their own food, consumable household items, transportation 
and maintenance of our guesthouse. There is no space for pets or children.
If you foresee that you might be visiting this area, please contact Jen 
Ambrose for a personal interview and tour. The deadline for applications is 
Jan. 7th 2002. Please send requests for application forms to: Work/Study,

JUST RELEASED PERMACULTURE BOOK
GAIA'S GARDEN A GUIDE TO HOME SCALE GARDENS

The first book to locate Permaculture in the American Landscape

Activist Editor Toby Hemenway has assembled a practical and user friendly 
guide to backyard permaculture. Skillfully written and full of examples 
from the foremost permaculture gardens across the country, the text 
introduces permaculture principles at work, explaining the basics of this 
ingenious language of design. Chapters cover Soil, Water Management, and 
Choice of Plants, as well as more advanced subjects as Interplanting, 
Guilds, Forest Gardens and Garden Evolution. Drawing on a wealth of 
Permaculture Lessons and Lore, the author documents the dramatic successes 
of ordinary men and women in bringing barren landscapes to life and in 
doing so, he swings wide the permaculture gate for all garden lovers to enter.

Announcing the Opening of The Permaculture Credit Union
The Permaculture Credit Union is a reality. A new kind of environmentally 
responsive financial institution has been created and chartered. It is 
possibly the first credit union founded upon the Earth Care principles of 
Permaculture ethics, namely respect for natural systems, respect for 
people, and no waste ( which in banking will mean the reinvestment and 
recycling of surplus back into the community being served). Our mission is 
to pool the financial resources of people who subscribe to these ethical 
principles and provide a financial vehicle that will allow these resources 
to be put to work creating a sound sustainable, environmentally responsible 
future. We believe we have targeted a market that is severely unserved by 
existing financial institutions- those people who are committed to a 
cleaner environment, healthy food and water, sustainable energy use, and a 
more conscious lifestyle. It will create the opportunity for members to 
control the use of money in the community and contribute to the 
revitalization of local well-being.
         The PCU is now close to 200 with $500,000 in share and term and 
needs to grow to $1,000,000 in order to offer more services to the 
Permaculture Community.

"In a nutshell, Permaculture is both a philosophy and an interdisciplinary
design system to create sustainable ecosystems which support human needs in
a way that treads lightly on the earth and which respects, conserves and
regenerates natural ecosystems. The principles of permaculture are based on
ecology and can be applied to all climates and environments from the city
to the wilderness, from the backyard to the bioregion. Permaculture is
dancing with nature where nature leads the dance."
- Robyn Francis (Australia) <permed at nor.com.au> www.earthwise.org.au

"What permaculturists are doing is the most important activity that any
group is doing on the planet. We don't know what details of a truly
sustainable future are going to be like, but we need options, we need
people experimenting in all kinds of ways and permaculturists are one of
the critical gangs that are doing that."
Dr David Suzuki geneticist, broadcaster
and international environmental advocate
