Hello Tami,
I see you are thinking about attending the PDC, if you would like to ask a PDC grad question about their experience please send me a message, http://www.phoenixpermaculture.org/profile/RyanWood.

In a nut shell, I was wanting to learn more about gardening so I attended the Spring 2008 PDC. While taking the course I realized the 72 hour PDC isn't just about gardening but more about learning to observe the relationships in nature (all things) and utilizing those relationships to create a holistic design. It truly was a life changing experience for me. Plus another great thing about the PDC is it gives the students an opportunity to learn and then go out and share with others (if they choose to). Just one year later I was co-teaching the water harvesting section with Don Titmus.

Hope you are able to join us!
Regards,
Ryan

Hi Tami!

My children went to DM last year and I met you there. I was amazed by the gardens you planned behind the 2nd and 3rd grade rooms. I would like to try that this winter, but as you can see... I am late. I hope to get the top soil from Ken Singhs farm on Saturday morning and already have the forms ready to fill.

I attempted an e-mail to Barbara, but the address failed. Do you have any other way to contact her?

Glad you are here on the PPG site!

Peace, Monica

I think having a group about biodynamic gardening would be great! Just need a few interested folks like yourself to "monitor" the discussions and offer great advice. Are you game? I do not know much on this subject-YET!

Thanks for joining us! I have been meaning to join the AZHS Biodynamic group but haven't yet. Sounds very interesting.
