To those who are interested in learning about communities, John and Rebecca are always organizing great events!

The idea of intentional community is fascinating to me.

I can't wait to learn a thing or two; especially get some insight from Paul himself!

Hello Wiggins!

Welcome to the forums!

Did you get signed up for the event?   We are on live now!

There has been so much great info so far this morning and Paul will be coming on soon!

I am so thankful for this event!   I spend a lot of time trying to help people find their way to the life they really want.  


John and Rebecca Bush have done a beautiful job of building a blueprint so folks can find a path that works for them and decide what the next steps are.

Everything is better together.

Nicole Reese is on right now.  Such a great presentation.

She has lots of resources I am excited to follow up on how to structure a community.

For me, the hardest part has been finding a way to pay for all the projects and building infrastructure.

This woman, Kelly Krezek has made that her life's work.  She is discussing business plans and how to attract investors to help build your dreams of a grand permaculture paradise.

Kelly focuses on creating living systems that move people past basic needs into thriving and living their best life ever.  

Thank you Paul!   This is a great presentation.  


Your explanation of "Permaculture Thorns" is really helpful.  
Here is a link to the ebook for anybody who wants to go deeper.

John and Rebecca mentioned how much they enjoyed reading Paul's book "Skills to Inherit Property (SKIP)"

Here is a little video to explain the idea of  "SKIP"

Amy, you can continue to be a member here, there is always something to learn.

As for the event Paul spoke at today, they’re still going until Sunday.

Liv- I am trying to find the way to view this. I got signed up, yet there is no schedule or anything. Can you help me?

Hello Amy!


In the email I got when I signed up, it says they will add the schedule to the page soon.  

I am glad you are getting to see this!  I think it will be really helpful for you, especially the Community Matchmaking session on Sunday!

Just signed up and receiving preliminary information.  I hope the seminar has automated SetUp at 5 am is quite early for some actual.people.  There is an upgrade I noticed that gives attendees access to an option to view and review sessions.

Thank you Liv for email invitation and link to join the seminar for free training!

I found the schedule at their LINK from the email registration response.  They have a Live Chat that is open the schedule was on there

The schedule starts at NOON today Saturday I'm assuming NOON Bastrop TX time (central?)
Having attended online training sessions before, what typically happens is I receive an email with link(received when I registered)
 
THEN, topic by topic I receive a TXT MSG reminder a few minutes before each class/topic starts.  Then I hit the link from my email or go to the YouTube channel or wherever it is as an open window on my device.

Then I join the chat line
Then the host usually yip yaps awhile as people arrive online
The CHAT LINE is where the interesting people are!!!
Be sure to enter questions on the CHAT LINE if offered as an opportunity, as the speakers sometimes leave time for answering questions
The schedule moves at a madcap rate, probably no Q&A

Good morning!

The Summit is live now!

Looks like a great ling up today.  We are starting with a beautiful eco village in Costa Rica!

Jonathan England of Earthwaking Village!   Wow that was an amazing presentation!  I will have to re watch it.   It want by so fast and so much info.


Next up is    Jaymie Friesen - Living the off grid dream




This is the real how to presentation!
How to actually set up your system so you can afford to live your dreams!

Haven village is in Tennessee.  There is such beauty in the landscape and their home designs.  I have been watching there folks grow their community since I met them at the Exit and Build event in Texas.  I am really excited to see how much they have grown their vision!





They are focusing on creating healthy, non toxic homes.  Places where people can come and heal.
It is really great to see people getting so much done.  They are being successful, growing their community and living their dreams.

The regenerative culture talk from Ecuador was quite heartwarming.  Their historic culture of healing and earth generated power was the highlight of my day at this seminar.
  The regenerative healing they discussed was human culture and ourselves and each other and our connectivity to all that is around us.
