  Subject: Bill Mollison USA Workshop 

  Dear Friend, 

  I would like to invite you to a 3-day workshop by Dr. Bill Mollison, 
  the founder of Permaculture, October 10-12, 2000 in NW Louisiana. His 
  course precedes a Permaculture Design Certificate Course offered 
  October 16-28 by Geoff Lawton, appointed Director of the Permaculture 
  Research Institute by Mollison in 1997. These events will mark the 
  beginning of the demonstration center being established at this site. 

  Internationally renowned teacher and author of seven books, Dr. 
  Mollison, called the Father of Permaculture, is stepping out of 
  retirement to teach a three-day Permaculture course at the Northwest 
  Louisiana Commerce Center. 

  http://www.nwlcc.com 

  This course supports efforts to develop a North American demonstration 
  of sustainable agriculture and commerce at the deactivated Louisiana 
  Army Ammunition Plant, where plans are under way to renovate the area 
  for Permaculture practices. 

  Please see the attached invitation and registration form. Please 
  contact me if you cannot open these forms and would like to receive 
  information by mail. 

  Workshop: Early Registration - $350, After Sept. 1 - $395 (Student 
  Price - $295) 

  PDC: Early Registration - $795, After Sept. 1 - $995 

  Package: Early Registration - $1000, After Sept. 1 - $1200 

  Permaculture education includes principles and practices of 
  sustainable soil, water, crop, forest, architectural, business, and 
  finance systems ­ ethical investment, community loan support and small 
  business management. 

  Permaculture, from PERMAnent agriCULTURE, is an integrated system of 
  design including not only agriculture, horticulture, architecture and 
  ecology but also land access strategies and economic systems for small 
  businesses and communities. 

  Taken from the Latin, permanens, to endure or persist through time and 
  cultura, cultures - permaculture is an interdisciplinary design 
  science focused on sustainable system design. Sustainable systems are 
  defined as those that, over their lifetime, produce energy equivalent 
  to or in excess of what they consume. 

  Permaculture operates on three ethics: care of the earth, care of the 
  species and return of excess to the first two. 

  Sincerely, 

  Victor A. Guadagno
