PNB WHAT'S ON

Your monthly e-Newsletter from Permaculture Northern Beaches - 

We bring a variety of at least three activities each month to the permaculture community on the Northern Beaches. Each month is no exception with a mix of permatours and permabees (garden tours and working bees) , workshops, native bees and beekeeping, seed saving, eco-products and living skills. We also run Introduction to Permaculture weekend courses twice a year.  Our monthly education evenings are on the last Thursday each month from February to November at Nelson Heather Community Centre, Banksia Room, 5 Jacksons Rd. North Narrabeen, doors open 7:15 pm.  All are welcome and entry is by donation.

Over the next 18 months we have a special initiative on Greening Your Home - inside and out.  This includes clean energy technologies, sustainable building, a non-toxic environment and organic living. There will be a series of workshops and guest expert sessions as well as displays and resources.

Have a question or wanting to follow some great postings then check out our Permaculture Northern Beaches Community Organization Facebook page. We are volunteers and having a great permaculture community is part of why we are all involved. Volunteering is always appreciated and you have the opportunity to learn a lot. You can follow the link to our website online at the end of this message or email: p.n.b@hotmail.com.  

To find out more you can check out our events listings on this website and sign up for our electronic monthly e-newsletter.
