In case you missed it...
Over the last two weeks I published a four part podcast series featuring
Darren Doherty introduction and discussing the
Regrarians Platform.
You can listen to the four part series here:
Part 1 – Introductioon, Geography, Climate (b032)
Part 2 – Water, AAccess, Forestry (b033)
Part 3 – Buildingss, Fences (b034)
Part 4 – Soils, MMarketing, Energy (b035)
Darren defines the platform as...
"the basis of work flow & decision-making for all of
Regrarians Ltd. work in designing, developing & training in the field
of Regenerative Agriculture & Living. The Regrarians Platform is
based on the ‘Keyline Scale of Permanence’ developed by the late,
great Australian agricultural designer, P.A. Yeomans as outlined in his
1958 classic, ‘The Challenge of Landscape’.
The big evolution in the Regrarians Platform over Yeomans’ Keyline
Scale of Permanence is its inclusion of social & economic themes,
whereas Yeomans scale was very much centred on agriculture. The
Regrarians Platform also has changes in some of the headings and adds 9.
Economy & 10. Energy to Yeomans original eight
headings."
The Regrarians Platform
1. Climate
2. Geography
3. Water
4. Access
5. Forestry
6. Buildings
7. Fences
8. Soils
9. Economy
10. Energy
If you aren't familiar with the platform, or Darren, then these four
episodes will give you a nice introduction to the platform and the
thought process behind it - it's brilliant.
I think that the platform itself will revolutionize the way that a
lot of design is done within this sector, and this methodology will fill
a much needed void. Because the platform takes all of the
information that is out there within various systems (permaculture,
keyline, holistic management, etc.) and consolidates and organizes it
into a decision making framework that anyone can follow. It's the
framework here that is key, compared to say permaculture itself, which
lacks an exact process that can be followed.
Darren is also in the process of writing a handbook on the platform, and
hopefully the book will be out in time and available at PV3 in March.
Darren's an absolute wealth of knowledge, have been involved in the
design and development of nearly 2000, mostly broadacre projects across 5
continents in close to 50 countries, ranging from 1 million hectare
cattle stations to family farms.
Over the past twenty years Darren has traveled the world, seen a ton of
sites, and interacted with farmers and landowners of all make-ups.
He understands design, different climates, and working with clients.
And that's why I asked him to speak at
PV3.
At PV3 he will be three in depth talks on land and farm design, and the
design business.
These talks won’t be shallow and brief.
Each of those talks are 3 hour talks. So if you go attend PV3 and
want to learn from Darren you will get a lot of opportunity to learn from
him, and dig deep over the course of 9 hours.
The long form content is one thing that I changed with PV3. Trading
one hour talks for longer more in depth three hour ones. All of the
talks will still focus on high level content with real world,
practical and applicable tips and methodologies that you can take home
and put into action.
If you are looking to begin a change in your life, whether major or
minor, and you want to take on regenerative agriculture for a career, and
then come on out to PV3 and learn from designers like Darren who are
leaders in their field.
Darren has two decades of experience and has worked on 2000 design
jobs.
Think about that.
How much does he know that you could benefit from?
Save yourself a lot of time and headache and learn from his
experience.
The first two waves of tickets for PV3 are done, and the third wave of
PV3 tickets are on sale now.
Take advantage before this wave closes out.

Have a listen to the series with Darren and let me know what you
think....
Are there more specific topics mentioned within these episodes that
you would like to hear more about?
Let me know. I read every email.
Thanks,
Diego
