Richelieu-Vanier Community Centre, 300 des Peres Blancs Avenue, Vanier

At its simplest, permaculture is an eco-logical approach to design. It can be described as a way of thinking, making decisions and designing things based on observing nature. Permaculture has a set of ethics and design principles which can be applied to physical things - like landscapes or cities - as well as to invisible things - like business models, and our personal lives. Transition Towns utilise permaculture principles and design as an important base for action.

In this fun, interactive workshop, we will:
*Explore the basics of permaculture in relation to Transition Towns and transitioning Ottawa
*Learn the permaculture ethics and permaculture design principles
*Look at examples of how permaculture can be applied

Please join us and:
*Learn about permaculture and how to begin applying it in your life, work and projects
*Connect with and get to know the Transition Ottawa community
*Learn about more ways to participate in Transition Ottawa
*Discover things you could do to transition towards a lower energy lifestyle

Cost: $25
