NW Eco Workshops - Friday, May 1 - Thursday, May 7 and so much more

[Jocelyn Campbell]

Good evening to you!

 

It’s spring—time to grow some new habits (or new brain cells!) by finding a workshop in a shade of green that suits your interest. Local food, permaculture, bicycle commuting, home energy audits, LEED info, container gardening, beekeeping, rocket stoves and more, are all compiled at jocelynsevents.com for your convenience.

 

The NW / Cascadia / Seattle and Puget Sound Eco Events Calendar sponsor, permies.com, is holding an amazing Bullock’s Permaculture Homestead Intro to Permaculture weekend workshop ticket giveaway - a $200 value.

To keep this Eco Events calendar going, please help spread the word. Visit and use the site, forward this e-mail and encourage folks to sign up for weekly e-mails. Weekly e-mail updates have resumed! There was a brief hiccup in my schedule and with SO much to compile (which is an incredibly cool thing, no doubt!) it took me a bit to get back on track. Thanks for your patience.

 

Wishing you joy and simple (eco) pleasures,

 

Jocelyn Campbell
