Well, I will be attending the irrigation design class with Jeff Prince this weekend if you are considering that. Jeff is great, and I suspect could sign off on your hours himself but I will be there. I have a meeting planned for this Friday to set dates for work in Nuestro Barrio, so more on that later.
At my house I will be building a quail tractor-cage in the very near future - we could set a time if you are interested.
What kinds of stuff would you like to learn? Anything that sparked your interest this first weekend? I will keep you posted on my activities, and you do the same - we could even work together on a some sort of permaculture element at your place - I am a big believer in just jumping right in.
