Hello all,

If you are in central Missouri and are interested in meeting other permie minded folks we are starting a new permaculture guild in Columbia. Information can be found at www.facebook.com/columbiapermacultureguild

Awesome!

Glad to see you working on this, Todd. We have a group that is beginning to solidify here in the Kansas City area. In fact, we should figure out how to work together on things. For example, we have a Google+ hangout next Friday evening, a strawbale building demonstration on Feb. 27 and will likely have a three-day rocket mass heater workshop in June. Any and all from central Missouri are welcome to join in any of these activities. You can follow along over at the Kansas City Area thread: https://permies.com/forums/posts/list/200/24368

Thanks Dan, I'll see if we can join your Google+ hangout and we should definitely figure out how to work together. I am trying to plan a field trip to the University of Missouri Agroforestry Research Center in New Franklin this spring. I'll keep Kansas City contingent in the loop on that.

Howdy all!

Currently in CoMo area, but don’t use the book of faces (www.facebook.com/columbiapermacultureguild appears to be dead/old anyhow?) ... any efforts to start up a community (offline or on-) ‘round these parts?

If not — any best practices on managing a new forum/subgroup here on Permies? I’d like to start a local one if there’s enough interest.

I’ll continue to poke around in existing forums/threads (this is first matching keyword search I came across).

Danke mucho!

I don’t have Facebook either. My wife keeps track of the Facebook group. I’m not sure how to start a subgroup or new forum but would participate if it existed.

We just recently moved out of Columbia just west to the Cooper/Moniteau county area near Prairie Home. We have a decent little community of neighbors who are somewhere on the permaculture spectrum out here, so if you are west of Columbia you’re not alone. If you’re in Columbia, there’s a lot of people!

Either way I would like to see something a little more organized but I simply don’t have the time to organize it myself. Tried once but couldn’t stick with it.

Belated FYI!  I’m seeing some related stuff on the Ozarks Forum: https://permies.com/f/128/ozarks

Hey Todd and all. We’d certainly be interested. I’d be great to have a personal potluck get together somewhere again to attempt to organize this. Please keep us Creekers posted but remember that internet service in some parts of our boonies is limited to unreliable cell service. We do have a phone!
