[Sdpg] Sunday, May 26 INTRODUCTION TO PERMACULTURE WORKSHOP San Diego

[Wesley Roe and Marjorie Lakin Erickson]

INTRODUCTION TO PERMACULTURE
WORKSHOP

Lakeside Community Center, San Diego
Sunday, May 26
12:30 - 4:30

The beginning of this new century is a good time to reflect upon our 
lifestyles and to take mindful actions. This fun and interactive workshop 
will introduce you to a way of sustainable thinking, design, and living 
that can be applied to your home, workplace, farm, or community. This 
system is permaculture - it means permanent agriculture, or permanent 
culture. It utilizes ideas and technologies that are ancient, modern, and 
futuristic. You will learn the basics of how to cook with the sun, how to 
see "waste" as "surplus", how to grow your own food, and how to begin to 
think about re-designing your own place so that it functions as a 
"cultivated ecosystem".

Cost: $25 per person
Instructor: Jane Higginson (619) 668-3104, janehigginson at earthlink.net
