Hi, this is Geoff,
I want to welcome you to the world of permaculture :)
Whether you're completely new to this, or a seasoned pro, I'm confident that the four videos featured in this new Permaculture Masterclass will provide you with something of lasting value.
And please remember that above and beyond the 4 videos that are part of the Permaculture Masterclass, you now have access to a thriving community of over 55,000 like-minded folks from around the world, as well as over 70+ *free* permaculture resources -- all in our TPC ("The Permaculture Circle") online community. Please look for an email with the following subject line for your login details: "[LOGIN DETAILS ] Welcome to Geoff Lawton’s Online Permaculture Community"
If for some reason you haven't received it, please drop us an email at [email protected], and we'll get you all set up.
I promised you several resources to accompany the 4 Permaculture Masterclass videos. Depending on which videos you’ve seen already and which you will see in the coming days, some of these resources will make sense right away, and some will best be seen AFTER you watch the related video. I’ll detail which is which below, but I’ll give you access to ALL of them right away.
If you prefer to find ALL the resources below in a single place (rather than having to chase 5 different links), simply login to the Permaculture Circle (you'll receive a second email with those login details), then click here to go directly to these 5 resources. Or access them individually as detailed below:
- "How to Make Your Garden Drought-Proof" infographic (this goes along with Video # 1): You can view it or download it here.
- "How to Make Organic Fertilizer With Compost Worms” infographic (this goes along with Video # 2): You can view it or download it here.
- In the above infographic, you’ll see a note at the bottom left that says, “Watch the free worm farm video.” To view this video of me making fertilizer with compost worms, you’ll need to be logged in to the Permaculture Circle (we’ve sent you free login details for this in a separate email). Once you’re logged in, click here for the video.
- “What is a Food Forest?” infographic (this goes along with Video # 3). You can view it or download it here. And the video referenced there can also be seen inside the Permaculture Circle (same instructions as for the compost worm videos)
- Permaculture MindMap (“PMM”). This is one of the most-viewed mindmaps anywhere online. Warning: It is gigantic (!): You can view the entire PMM here.
Finally, I'll do my best to keep in touch with you via the Friday Fives. A couple of times per month, I send out a short email that highlights 5 things that have recently caught my attention. They could be things that are serious, funny, useful, or simply bizarre-but-in-an-interesting-way...all connected in some aspect to my life as a permaculture teacher, consultant, and active farmer. I hope you have as much fun reading -- and engaging with -- these Friday Fives as I do in putting them together. By signing up for TPC you automatically will receive the Friday Five in your inbox, so there is nothing further that you need to do to get these. And if you don’t like them, you can of course unsubscribe with 1 click.
I've been at this now for more than 30 years, and have loved it every step of the way. I'm honored that you've trusted me to be a part of your own journey, and I look forward to sharing with you what I've learned. We're going to have a great time changing the world for the better :)
Cheers,
Geoff

PS: As you may have noticed, we just opened enrollment to our 2021 Online PDC. Although I've taught more than 15,000 students in my 30+ year career, this is the first time in almost 2 years that I'll be teaching this course -- and I'm not sure when the next time will be. If after watching the Permaculture Masterclass series you would like to see if the PDC is a good fit for you, please feel free to explore the course information page here. And if you decide to enroll, be sure to use the code "THRIVE" when signing up to receive a $100 discount on tuition!
Again, welcome!
