There will be room for all to speak and share ideas and projects
through an Open Space format, so come ready to share and participate.
We will update our website with other important details as they
become available.
The site is a breathtaking space surrounded by nature. The weekend
will be full of strong, powerful, committed women who share a
vocabulary about planetary consciousness that sets us apart. This
weekend will juice you up, connect you to other extraordinary women,
and inspire you to continue to create the world we all know is
possible!
We are creating a weekend of connecting, inspiring, playing and
conjuring with other women dedicated to a vision of the world where
resources are precious, relationships are priority, and beauty
abounds! Spreading what's possible by implementing permaculture
designs and principles throughout our lives. We will share what's
happening in the various cities we live. We will inspire each other
with the great projects we are spear-heading. We will support and
offer resources and guidance to each other throughout the weekend.
The first gathering was amazing. This one is sure to be equally
incredible. A bunch of permaculture minded rock star women all
together for the weekend! How could we go wrong?
We've tried to make it as affordable as possible while still
covering expenses. Tickets prices range from $165-$350 depending on
accommodations and income. Please pay at the highest level you can
afford. This helps us offer work trade options and makes the future
of this gathering sustainable and not subsidized!

**If you have the means to contribute financially to help create
this event that would be appreciated (to help us support key note
speakers travel, provide scholarships, and make the event more smooth)
We are delighted to be creating this gathering and are looking
forward to sharing it with YOU!
Please spread the word! Please forgive cross posts.
Thank you for what you do and how you be!
Love,
Joan, Camille, Kat, and Melora
"There is one, and only one, solution, and we have almost no time to
try it. We must turn all our resources to repairing the natural
world, and train all our young people to help. They want to. We need
to give them this last chance to create forests, soils, clean
waters, clean energies, secure communities, stable regions, and to
know how to do it from hands-on experience"
"...the greatest change we need to make is from consumption to
production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only
10% of us do this, there is enough for everyone.
Hence the futility of revolutionaries who have no gardens, who
depend on the very system they attack, and who produce words and
bullets, not food and shelter."
- Bill Mollison
