5th Annual Northeastern Permaculture Convergence "Permaculture in Practice"

This year, Vermont permaculturists have offered to host the annual gathering at the 'All Together Now!' Living Arts Center in Central VT. Join permaculture enthusiasts, practitioners and educators from throughout the northeast for the 5th annual regional northeastern permaculture convergence in East Montpelier! This exciting, collaborative, activity packed event features an impressive assemblage of presentations, lectures, hand-on workshops and celebration that include intensive forays into edible plant propagation, natural building, root cellaring, bio-char, rocket stoves, coppice forestry, lacto-fermentation, education, keyline design, the zen of permaculture, humanure, traditional woodworking and much more. Local food, music, beer; on-site camping; and some of the most inspired company you'll find in the region set the stage for an amazing fourth of July weekend. Additional tours of community-based permaculture-inspired homesteads and businesses will precede the convergence on July 1-2. Additional details coming soon.

Designers, Educators, Farmers, Builders, Authors, Transition Towners, Homesteaders, Community Activists, Families, and other enthusiasts from Maine, New York, New Hampshire, Quebec, Vermont, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, New Jersey, and elsewhere gather to practice, learn, celebrate, inspire, and embody our ecological culture. Other regions are welcome- of course!
