2025 WORKSHOPS & CLASSES

SOCIAL PERMACULTURE
with STARHAWK

April 24-27, 2025

In this 4-day intensive in-person course, Starhawk guides us through her experiences as a leader in the permaculture movement on the Social end of the permaculture spectrum.  In her book, The Empowerment Manual: A Guide for Collaborative Groups, Starhawk draws on her decades of experience—often wonderful, sometimes painful—in activist groups, spiritual groups, community groups, permaculture groups, collective households, and more.  This course is for you if you'd like to gain skills in organizing effective and diverse groups, and/or  gain personal understanding of how to create harmony and  diversity in your own relating experiences.
