Because I haven't seen it discussed on this forum yet, just wanted to let anyone who might be in or near the Blue Ridge biozone of the Eastern US - there is a thriving and valuable
permaculture forum based in Central Virginia called the
Blue Ridge Permaculture Network. They send out fairly regular emails with
local events in and around the Virginia region - I found my
PDC class through them!
Check it out if you're in our neck of the woods:
