[Southern California Permaculture] Attending Bioneers this year?/Visit our Exhibit Booth

[Margie Bushman, Santa Barbara Permaculture Network]

We are off to Bioneers!  Always a good place to be during stressful 
times, has inspired and calmed our minds many times in the past...

If you are also coming to Bioneers look for us in the outdoor Change 
Makers Fair section where we will have an exhibit booth promoting the 
next International Permaculture Convergence (IPC) in India Nov 2017, 
& the Friends of the International Permaculture Convergences (FIPC) 
whose mission is to help with scholarships for the IPCs.

What is the theme for the next IPC in India?  Women As Agents of 
Change & Permaculture as a Social Responsibility. Aranya Agricultural 
Alternatives are the official conveners for this IPC, take a look at 
their website to see their exemplary work, 2017 will be their 30th 
Anniversary of permaculture in India, much of their work around 
marginal farmers, and women.  They demonstrate a Dryland Food Forest 
on their site, one of the only non irrigated food forests in the 
world.  India, as California, faces huge issues around water, they 
also have a booming population.  Time to learn from each other, as 
happens so significantly at these IPC convergences.
