Title: Geoff Lawton's new film "Introduction to Permaculture Design"
When: Sunday, November 22, 2009 7:00 PM
At this introductory meeting, we'll warm up with tea or hot cocoa and watch Geoff Lawton's newly-released (and much-anticipated) film "Introduction to Permaculture Design" (see description and video preview below). Lawton is one of the world's foremost permaculture educators and has worked all over the world.
(For directions, see bottom of page.)
Everyone interested in permaculture is invited to attend! Following the movie we'll have a discussion and members who may be interested in joining the just-starting permaculture reading group will have a chance to look over many of the most well-known permaculture books and films. Reading group meetings will be announced thereafter based on members' schedules and convenience. If you are not able to attend, but are interested in the reading group, you can email me at kriskaul@yahoo.com, or just show up at any of the reading group meetings. New participants will be welcome at any of the meetings.
