"Peace in Permaculture" a Talk by Warren Brush

Feb 10, 2013 5:30pm-7:00pm (ended)

Permaculture Event Flyer

Join international permaculture teacher, mentor, and storyteller Warren Brush, for an inspiring evening of stories and images that will take you on a journey into his extensive peace-nurturing work through the worldwide permaculture movement that brings sustainable and equitable living to people and communities in America, Africa, Australia, the Middle East, and Europe.
 
"Permaculture is a holistic design science that is reflective of natural patterns and promotes mutually beneficial relationships rooted in ethics and principles that guide us to live in a sustainable and equitable manner. The concepts and themes in Permaculture help us rediscover how to be a positive contributor to the earth, ourselves, and humanity."
