Introduction

I'd like to see permaculture education accessible to everyone, particularly in cities, where land access, resources, and community spirit are low.

What kind of invisible structure ideas do you favor?

social landscaping, restructuring consciousness, cross pollination.. For now: trying to systematically develop neighborhood communities that are as interconnected, resilient & healthy as pre-industrial villages.

Have you completed the PDC course and been certified? Diploma?

Yes, with Ethan Roland at Camp Epworth

Are you currently in an ecovillage, organizing one, or would you be interested to join one?

absolutely. If I find one that fits.

Do you have a place to apply permaculture designs?

I ran Cooperative Evolution: a website and mailing list that announced daily environmental events in New York City. I am now the Founder and Chairwoman of Get Dirty NYC! (see description below)

Would you be interested in taking a PDC course?

Probably not another one unless an outstanding teacher is running it. But I'm always interested in refresher classes, skill building workshops and hands on learning experiences.

Additional Information

"Get Dirty NYC! is a newly-formed volunteer-run non profit whose mission is to improve New Yorkers’ access to hands-on gardening and farming opportunities within the five boroughs, and to support the efforts of New York City’s farmers and gardeners."
