FYI re. below email.<br>
<br>
There's a '4 for the price of 3' discount.<br>
<br>
Also, some students are keen but unable to do the course this time round
(would love to do it in November).<br>
<br>
We realise this is very late scramble for cash. Looking into ways
we can fund too.<br>
<br>

<br><font size=3>Hi Terry,<br>
<br>
We'd love some help trying to get up to 3 students to an upcoming 2-week
permaculture course. The cost is ~$1000 each. We think it would
be of great benefit to the Monash Permaculture Garden community's skillset,
the culture and student experience of integrated learning on campus, and
the quality of the garden on campus (food production yield, biodiversity,
aesthetics, ...)<br>
<br>
Some more information...<br>
</font><font size=3 color=blue><u><br>
</u></font><a href=http://www.southerncrosspermaculture.com.au/ target=_blank><font size=3 color=blue><u>Southern
Cross Permaculture Institute</u></font></a><font size=3> (SCPI) in South
Gippsland is running a Permaculture Design Certificate </font><a href="http://www.southerncrosspermaculture.com.au/pdc-courses/" target=_blank><font size=3 color=blue><u>course</u></font></a><font size=3>
very soon, from March 26th-April 10th. It is an intensive 2 week
residential course held near Leongatha, which expands from theoretical
principles to lots of hands-on experience and includes a couple of trips
to other local demonstration properties.<br>
<br>
We have previously had external permaculture designers consult with us
on the Monash Permaculture Garden (MPG), and we feel that it is now time
to more rapidly gain skills <i>within</i> the community of [largely student]
gardeners on campus. With this in mind, we would like to send up
to 3 people on the upcoming course, with an expectation that they will
share their skills with other MPG members through working bees and workshops.<br>
<br>
Rick Coleman from SCPI in fact assisted the Monash Permaculture Garden
in its formative stages, and recently gave some sage advice about effective
community engagement & volunteer management. Kat Lavers, who
has taught an MSA short courses class in our garden, will be teaching a
section of this course, and has also been assisting us with the garden
recently.<br>
<br>
It would be wonderful if we could arrange some kind of Uni-funded subsidy
for the course.<br>
<br>
Any ideas, questions, and support would be fantastic.<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
