The permaculture group is dedicated to studying and practicing the basics of permaculture!

 

We welcome all Time Bankers to join our group - get some exercise, learn how to work with nature!  We plan our activities when the weather is good, but we also come indoors to talk about projects and permaculture in general. Our current site is the Kimberton EcoVillage, but we're working on other sites and connecting with other groups...

​
