Dear 2010 Upstate NY Permaculture Gathering participants,

Last month we all met in the Gear Factory and traded our ideas, questions, and ourselves. Thanks to the organizing work of the Syracuse community of permaculture practitioners--especially the crew at Alchemical Nursery--folks from Buffalo to Albany and points above, below, and in-between had a day to network and put faces to the growing permaculture movement.

During the Open Space session a crew assembled to plan an internet-based network for sharing and discussion about permaculture in Upstate NY. The first manifestation of this is found at: http://upstateNYpermaculture.Net

The Upstate NY Permaculture Network is an Dear 2010 Upstate NY Permaculture Gathering participants,

Last month we all met in the Gear Factory and traded our ideas, questions, and ourselves. Thanks to the organizing work of the Syracuse community of permaculture practitioners--especially the crew at Alchemical Nursery--folks from Buffalo to Albany and points above, below, and in-between had a day to network and put faces to the growing permaculture movement.

During the Open Space session a crew assembled to plan an internet-based network for sharing and discussion about permaculture in Upstate NY. The first manifestation of this is found at: http://upstateNYpermaculture.Net

The Upstate NY Permaculture Network is an email list for respectful, open discussion of permaculture and especially for social and ecological issues related to permaculture design in New York State’s northern counties. Messages to the list will be posted on the website and forwarded to other social networking applications.

The Upstate NY Permaculture Network is both an audience and a portal for permaculture news, events, and resources. Teachers, students, farmers, gardeners, organizers and individuals seeking the permaculture community can use this network to connect.

The Upstate NY Permaculture Network is a place to promote classes, ask questions, share designs and to organize face-to-face networking. The Network will fill a niche that allows organizers in the larger Northeastern region and worldwide to find and reach out to our local networks within upstate New York and vice versa.

We look forward to your participation,
