[Scpg] Creating an Edible Oasis Course - Ventura, CA - May 15-17 - Registration Open Now!

[Devin S]

Hi Everybody!

Here's the info for the next *Creating an Edible Oasis Course - May 15-17 in
Ventura,CA*. This is a practical course on how to design and implement
edible forest gardens - a way of growing food that provides year-round
abundance that lets nature do the work. We will be creating a forest garden
in a front yard in Ventura!

*A couple highlights about this course:*
-We have a new Friday night permaculture party as a component. We'll have
live music, wood-fired pizza, and a permaculture presentation that gets into
the details of permaculture and food forestry. It's also an option for
friends and family to come just for the night.
-The course includes the essentials of food forestry applied in a hands-on
format - that way you will really know how to do it, and what you'll run
into when you do it yourself.
-It is priced rediculously low compared to other 3-day courses

As you'll notice below, has a great incentive for you to advertise and bring
friends. For every person that signs up and pays in full that mentions you,
you get $5 off your tuition. Also, if you fill out the registration form and
pay by May 8, the course is only $45!

If you don't plan on attending the course, but know people who would, please
send this out to friends or put up a flyer on your local bulletin board.

Much gratitude, much love,
Devin Slavin
