Asheville Permaculture Meetup Revival
Jan 8 @ 8:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Online w/ Asheville Permaculture Meetup

Let’s start 2021 off right with a Revival Meeting! 2020 has been a great reminder of how we are in desperate need of permaculture principles and indigenous practices of working with Nature. People like you are needed right now more than ever!

This meeting will be an online roundtable meet & greet to discuss how we can grow as a community of like-minded permaculture folk, and stay in communication with each other as we move forward through this Great Reset.

I have set the time for 1 hour, but am open to see where the flow takes us …
