Im 49, married with 3 children and currently am employed by a charity working on a project building sustainable communities for older people who wish to stay in their own homes for as long as they wish to.
I read "Permaculture Garden" by Graham Bell in 1992, didn't really get it then did a PDC in 2004 where it all started to make sense.
I completed my diploma pathway (UK) in 2010. I lead the occaisional intro weekend and teach on PDC's. Am retrofitting my house and implementing designs in my gardens, allotment, for friends and on a community garden. Have attended the Daren Doherty RAD in the uk and also Holistic Management with Kirk Gadzia and a key line refresher with Owen Hablutzel.
