Dear Friends of Permaculture,
Kaw Permaculture in conjunction with the Sustainability Action Network has been offering Design Certification Courses that span 15 weeks and meet weekly since 2009. We have received many request for a more time manageable workshop on the essentials of Permculture.
Kaw Permaculture is proud to announce a two-day workshop entitled, "Introduction to Permaculture Ethics, Principles and Design". This short course will take place on March 24 and 25 at the Dreher Family 4H Building, 2110 Harper St. in Lawrence, KS.
The workshop will cover the essentials in the creation of urban-scale and broad acre permaculture landscapes. It will also include design exercises and group discussion of permaculture applications, resources and community projects. Learn how to design and maintain productive ecosystems through articulation of your goals, group activities and examples of permaculture applications in various contexts.
“Permaculture is the conscious design and maintenance of cultivated ecosystems which have the diversity, stability & resilience of natural ecosystems. It is the harmonious integration of landscape, people & appropriate technologies, providing good, shelter, energy & other needs in a sustainable way. Permaculture is a philosophy and an approach to land use which works with natural rhythms & patterns, weaving together the elements of microclimate, annual & perennial plants, animals, water & soil management, & human needs into intricately connected & productive communities” Bill Mollison, co-founder of Permaculture
The fee for the workshop will be $125 if you enroll before February 15 and $160 thereafter. Registration information is attached. For more information visit, kawpermaculture.org/category/training/, or contact Steve Moring at 785-691-7305, or at mori...@gmail.com

brad rush and i made a fifth batch of biochar in our 55-gallon TLUD.
unexpectedly, as we lit the barrel, the wind picked up and reached 25 mph sustained gusts.
very challenging conditions to do a burn, and the wind almost snuffed the gas flare three times.
but our wind shields were effective, and the burn was a beautiful success.
below is a photo of the enchanting blue flames in the barrel at the end of the burn,
and attached is a brief video of the three foot gas flare at the peak of the burn.
