Hello fellow permaculturists! I'm very excited to have found this site, and hope to connect with more
permaculture enthusiasts, especially in NV and Las Vegas. I'm pleased to announce that our organization, Great Basin
Permaculture, will be hosting Madre Tierra: An Introduction to
Permaculture weekend this first week of April. We are the first
permaculture organization in southern Nevada, and have been picking up lots of momentum! We are establishing a permaculture demonstration garden inside Vegas
Roots Community Garden, and are becoming involved with
local schools and so many others. I hope if you're in the Las Vegas area that you'll come join us for our Introduction weekend. Details follow, visit us at www.greatbasinpermaculture.org to see what we've been busy working on in one of the driest deserts in the world.
Madre Tierra: Introduction to Permaculture Weekend from Apr 5 to Apr 7, 2013. Introductory permaculture
class will be given by Jessica Penrod of Great Basin Permaculture and Cindy Dixon of the Springs Preserve. The weekend will include a design
project, hands-on installation, and networking mixer. Meals are provided, and will feature Las Vegas chefs and locally grown produce. Guest speaker Larry Santoyo of EarthFlow Design Works is a leading expert in smart and responsible environmental design. The Introduction is presented in conjunction with Downtown Project Construction Zone and Blackbird Studios in Las Vegas, NV. Learn more and register at
