Come and join us for an evening of awareness and positive design: using Permaculture to create a more resilient and fulfilling life, with Permaculture Consultant and Teacher Silvia Di Blasio.
Silvia started studying and practicing Permaculture in 2011, when she awakened to the realities of Climate Change and resources depletion. Graduated from her PDC in 2013 at UBC Land and Food Systems and as a Permaculture Teacher from OUR Ecovillage (studying with Jude Hobbs), Silvia is currently working on her Permaculture Diploma, specializing in community and household resilience and community services.
Discover how Permaculture goes beyond sustainable gardening/farming: how it is being used to improve lives around the world in areas such as disaster relief, food security, carbon detox, career planning for the right livelihood, relationships, community building and much, much more...
In this introductory workshop Silvia will show you practical tips you can start applying to your life right now. You may also discover that you are, in fact, already applying Permaculture to your life!
