<div><strong>1. Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) - I will present the 1st PDC on the farm in <font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff33">December 2011</font></strong></div>
<div> </div>
<ul>
<li>I have not purchased the farm at this point in time. </li>
<li>I think this will happen in 2011, God willing.</li>
<li>The farm needs a lot of rehabilitation.</li>
<li>I would like to establish a tented bush camp for the course delegates. </li>
<li>All of this will take time, effort and a lot of capital.</li>
<li>I will develop the course material for the Permaculture Design Course (PDC) from January 2011 to November 2011.</li>
<li>I will be ready to present the 1st 14 day Permaculture Design Course (PDC) <strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff33">in December 2011</font></strong> on the farm. </li></ul>

<div>Hello </div>
<div> </div>
<div><strong>I am <font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff33">attending Kufunda in Zimbabwe from 2 to 7 November 2010!</font></strong></div>
<div> </div>
<div>I would like to purchase a 200ha farm in the Klein Karoo, Western Cape South Africa <strong><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff33">and open the space of the farm for everyone wherever you are</font></strong>. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>On the farm you can just come and chill-out, relax, go on faboulous walks, find yourself, share your insights and ideas and have the opportunity to learn more about sustainable agriculture.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You can also stay on the farm for 14 days to complete the Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) training in sunny South Africa.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Interested? Let me know.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Kind regards</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Nici Richter </div>

<div>This is very short notice, but might be of interest nonetheless.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think this has lots of relevance to living in OS, in part I see it as an</div>
<div>attempt to answer the question, "What if we understood the capacity of space</div>
<div>to be self-hosting?"</div>

<div> </div>
<div>appreciatively,</div>
<div>Raffi</div>
<div> </div>
<div>A POPI (Powers of Place Initiiave) gathering around the question: What is</div>
<div>the new narrative for co-evolving people and place?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We hear the powers of place asking us to gather - the land is asking for</div>
<div>reconnection. We call together stewards of places and people who are</div>
<div>inquiring into intentional relationship with place - rural or urban - to</div>
<div>gather together to be in a council of places.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We invite each other to share stories and practices, collect our wisdom on</div>
<div>the powers of place, illuminate a field of practice of place as partner in</div>
<div>our evolution, create a web of people and places to continue this work</div>
<div>beyond the gathering and to simply be together in a resonant space.</div>
