Northern Michigan Permaculture News, Spring 2018: Online Permaculture Design Course and more

[penny krebiehl]

Good morning, and Happy New Beginnings & Springtime to you!

With good springtime energy, I wanted to reach out and share some news with you about an upcoming online permaculture design course which I'm really excited about.  It is being taught by 40 permaculture teachers!  I'm working to invite folks in various Michigan regions specifically, so that I can help organize meetups and discussion groups, making certain to have real-time and face-to-face experiences along with the convenience of doing the online coursework over a year-long span of time.

You could take this permaculture design course with me! I just signed up.That's right, I'm taking the whole 114 hr course, including the 3 hrs which I teach, because I want to learn from 40 amazing women from all over the globe(photo below). I especially want the extra training in social and emotional permaculture, and cultural transformation. There are still a few early bird spots left with lower pricing.

Sign up through this link to have me as your mentor for the final project.

I'm pleased to see that the curriculum outline and certification in this online course is through PINA!  Early bird pricing continues through the end of April or until the final 20 slots are filled.

Can you please, please and please help me make the announcements to your networks?  I'm SO excited to be taking the course and also sharing a module as one of the 40 teachers, called Working with Children and Youth!
