Re: #flxpc local permaculture guild (and testing)
I'm not sure if my last message went through--the text I got had no message body. What I suggested was that since three people had spoken up and offered to host, that someone specify a date and time and we can go from there. Since then, I got an email from McKenzie from ShareTompkins letting me know that they're working on a gardening-themed swap-meet at CCE at the end of the month. She wanted to know whether anyone from FLPCI would want to table; I was wondering if folks would want to turn that into a co-hosted event, and if so, would it make sense to do something like this: End of February: FLPCI/ShareTompkins potluck and seed-swap March 13: permaculture consulta in Syracuse End of March: next Finger Lakes Permaculture Guild potluck (with possible site tour and/or follow-up to the consulta) I can take the lead on the event at CCE since I more or less bridge both organizations, if someone can help me make sure I have my bases covered.

Re: #flxpc Local Permaculture Guild
Marvin, I really like your idea of having a seed swap/potluck/general permaculture-oriented gathering. My home (on S. Albany St.) would be a potential spot to host it, depending on how many people are interested.

It was fun to see many of you last night at Ithaca College for my talk! Thanks for coming! I forgot to mention during my talk the upcoming Permaculture Teacher Training course we are putting together this March. I thought I would send out a reminder to the list since I forgot last night. More info is below?please consider coming if you have a design course under your belt?we already have one person from the FLX region coming, and another considering coming. It will be great to bring fresh energy to the region and build the cadre of collaborating teachers in upstate NY and beyond! We have 308 million people in the US who need what permaculture offers, whether they know it or not, and most of the challenging trends we face change at exponential rates. We need to build a strong movement of quality teachers fast and get out there helping people shift to a new culture with joy and creativity. Join us! Planet Earth wants YOU! Thanks and many blessings! Dave PS: Three things: 1) we are raising scholarship funds to support those who cannot afford the course fees and travel costs, so if you don?t apply you won?t know if we can help you get into the course?so please apply if you want to come--don?t let money or lack thereof stop you. If you want to donate to the scholarship fund to support someone from your region, please be in touch! And 2) Yes, the course IS in Minnesota in March! Don?t let that stop you either. It looks like there will be some sort of carpool from this region heading out there, so call on your sense of adventure and come play with us! I?m not sure if or when or where I?ll do another one of these. 3) You can download a flyer and comments from students from past trainings at http://www.pricoldclimate.org/event/teaching_permaculture_creatively - Dave Jacke Dynamics Ecological Design 308 Main Street #2C, Greenfield, MA 01301 603-831-1298 ?
Re: #flxpc Local Permaculture Guild
I just want to say thanks to folks for taking the initiative on this. Over the years, a realtively small group of local organizers / practitioners have take on this type of project while simultaniously organizing and building on the ground projects. It has proven time and again to be too difficult for the same folks to be responsible for the local movement over and over again. It is encouraging that we are getting an injection of 'new blood' as this is often what it takes for movements to break out of their ruts.

Re: #flxpc Local Permaculture Guild
I support Marvin's initiative and agree with Josh's comments as well. Getting folks together for potlucks with some theme, activity, tour or short presentation is an easy way to get networking underway. Also, on March 13, Alchemical Nursery is organizing an upstate NY permaculture convergence which I hope a bunch of local permies can attend. Visit www.flxpermaculture.org for information.
