Schedule

These are important times for our children and their education models as many teachers are now offering virtual classroom time. This transition to a more technologically driven learning style happened very quickly. We believe there still needs to be a balance with more Earth-centered practices to reconnect our youth to cultivating more of our own food and medicines while deepening their connection to this planet that protects and provides for us. Let us take this time as a chance to learn more practical skills in how to shift to an ecologically focused paradigm:

• seed sharing
• compost making
• and fun family focused activities

Using permaculture ethics and principles our desire is to offer a foundation with introduction classes for parents and weekly hands-on activities for families to grow and learn together. Please join us within our Earth Activists Online community for interactive lecture Wednesdays + a bonus hands-on weekly project shared every Friday.

An Introduction to Permaculture ONLINE

Here we are at this time of unprecedented change – and we recognize that every one of us is part of this new CALL TO ACTION !!

In this new offering, Starhawk, Charles Williams & OUR educators will be teaching:

• Permaculture Design has been recognized the world over as a solutionary potency for creating amazing transformation within our full life systems and the needed planetary/earth healing as well.
• Ecovillage Design is now also known the world over, by Governments to scientists, as a earth/life design ‘to re-invent the future’.

Starhawk and Earth Activist international have partnered with OUR ECOVILLAGE in an effort to bring both of these design frameworks forward in service of the efforts we all need to make as we move into our collective future.

In these ‘Certainly uncertain Times’ we all become designers and learners as we move towards practical skills development and personal/social collaboration skill building in ways that we may never have even thought possible before!

Recording Available: This program will be recorded and have an offline component as well for those who are in other time zones.

Study “Lawful Permaculture” at Our Ecovillage!

OUR Ecovillage is proud to host this two-week permaculture design certificate course with a focus on organizing and activism which are grounded in concepts of earth-based spirituality. Learn how to heal soil and cleanse water, how to design human systems that mimic natural systems using a minimum of energy and resources, and how to create real abundance so that YOU can be a changemaker in environmental/social justice.

Explore the strategies and organizing tools we need to make our visions real, as well as the daily practice, magic, and processes that sustain our spirits. Participatory, hands-on teaching with lots of projects, games, guest teachers and regulatory authorities, and field trips to other important precedent-setting permaculture projects make up this intensive one-of-a-kind curriculum in ecological design.

This course is unique from almost all others in North America as you are stepping into OUR ECOVILLAGE: a 25-acre “Sustainable Living Demonstration Site and Education Centre” and one of the most built out permaculture projects.

For 19 years OUR Ecovillage has been working towards “Lawful Permaculture”; having every innovative design and building project that we have created ALSO be fully zoned/permitted/approved/etc by regulatory officials. Through partnering with all 3 levels of government, business/corporate sponsors, academia, and the grassroots of the wider community projects/organizations, OUR Ecovillage has managed to bring together a range of professionals, permaculture teachers, regulatory folks, and technical stakeholders to train others in the next stages of how to make permaculture projects fully legal.
