Description

Without community and collaborative effort no part of our daily life is possible. What does a healthy, sustainable, and thriving community look like?

We will be exploring how we can we utilize Permaculture philosophy in our work, schools, and community centers to design systems that create spirals of abundance and prosperity. You will learn concrete examples of community-care principles and leave with tips for making real changes.

Permaculture is a creative design process based on whole-systems thinking, biomimicry, and pattern language. Its aim is to create systems that are economically, environmentally, and energetically sound.

Throughout this series we will establish a deeper understand of Permaculture ethics, principles, and design to cultivate a more resilient culture. Bridget O’Brien is a Certified Permaculture Designer and Educator, and the Marketing Coordinator for The People’s Food Co-op of Ann Arbor, co-sponsor of this program.
