Announcing the South West Regional Permaculture Convergence 2017

The Permaculture Association's South West Regional Permaculture Convergence will take place over the weekend of 9-11 June 2017 at Goffin Land on the edge of Exeter.

The event is being organised by the Association in partnership with it's members and other local activists. Our intention is to bring new opportunities and benefits by connecting up the multitude of projects, local groups and individuals working in linked areas across the area. We also aim to help build a self-sustaining, resilient regional permaculture network for the South West.

Weekend Tickets range from £60-£96 inc. camping and 6 meals. Day Tickets also available. 150 maximum capacity.

What to Expect

The event will run over 48 hours. There will be a range of workshops, skillshares, strategy sessions, practical demonstrations and case studies to enjoy through each day, covering everything from permaculture for beginnners through to indepth and advanced sessions for those with more experience. We welcome contributions and participation from anybody involved in the social change, new economic, environmental & conservation and community activist movements. 

Expect a fun festival atmosphere; plentiful learning and networking opportunities; great quality local, organic food and evening music. There will be childrens activities and lots to get involved in from start to finish. Camping will be available on site for those staying for the weekend and we're exploring other options.
