Permaculture Convergence Summit at Merritt Community College

Program from 9am-8pm
Breakfast and Dinner are provided, lunch is potluck

A little bit of thoughtful observation of our ecology, economy, and 
culture will show that big changes are upon us.  However you choose 
to look at it, we're on the edge of something big.  What better way 
to address these times than to get together with some of the most 
forward thinking minds in the bay area to not only discuss but decide 
what the future looks like?

We've all pursued Permaculture as a means of bringing hope and 
providing a solutions oriented perspective to the situations we 
face.  Come and find out how others are optimizing their niche in 
this dynamic society.  Share your projects, inspirations and 
evolution of permaculture philosophy as it applies to your life.   We 
can see this time of convergence as an opportunity on the brink of 
transformation to ease the flow of human and natural systems 
integration.  The future is in our hands, let's get together and shape it!

We'll spend Saturday immersed in the products our most abundant 
resource - PEOPLE POWER, as we bike to several sites demonstrating 
how urban permies put their small and slow solutions into a backyard 
and community scale.  Sunday, we will gather at Merritt, nestled in 
the Oakland hills where we will co-envision and create the many 
mutual benefits emerging from this very literal edge of human and 
natural ecology.  Don't miss out on this great opportunity to connect 
the nodes of sustainability branching throughout the bay area and beyond!

Please pre-register to assist the planning process.
There are many roles for volunteers to make this event 
thrive!  Please contact us if you can contribute some time to assist 
with this very special gathering.  We have positions for preparation 
as well as on site set-up and clean-up.  Many hands make light work!
