It looks like it might rain on Saturday, which would be too bad for those of us hoping to work outside, but good for anyone who feels like attending a workshop indoors. Speaking of, UMD’s Sustainable Agriculture Project, Office of Sustainability, and Sociology & Anthropology Department are co-sponsoring what looks like a very interesting Permaculture for Everyone workshop this Saturday, March 27, by the Permaculture Research Institute.
permaculture: a word created by Australian ecologists Bill Mollison and David Holmgren, it is a contraction of “permanent agriculture” and usually refers to the inclusion of perennial agriculture (tree crops and food forests). Permaculture is a series of design strategies that can be applied to home gardens, large scale farms, metropolitan urban areas and the entire global economy.” (source: Permatopia Dictionary)
