Upcoming Schedule

Community Open House and Potluck on the First Friday of each Month, from 6pm-9pm.

Yasnaya Polyana Garden Meeting on the first Monday of each Month from 6pm-7pm.

Learning Parties:

Join Us on the First and Third Mondays of the month for our semi-monthly Learning Party. We will be starting by working our way through the Introduction to Permaculture book by Bill Mollison and Reny Mia Slay.

Permaculture is a design system and proven techniques for creating highly sustainable low-impact human settlements. It teaches us how build natural homes, grow our own food, restore diminished landscapes and ecosystems, catch rainwater, build communities and much more.

This will not be an instructor led course, but a group discussion of the ideas and principles of permaculture. Experienced permaculturists are encouraged to participate as a way of helping to spread information and generate interest in permaculture principles in our community.

Learning Party events are free. Please bring resources to share including but not limited to books, slideshows, snacks, etc.
