 re  lets embrace sustainability because we love the things we love ab
 out the present\"\n- Larry Santoyo\nJoin a group of conscious learners
  in a free introduction to permaculture day in the Heart Gardens, Gumb
 oot Gardens, Elphinstone Rainforest and Mandala Beach of Roberts Creek
 . Pilgrimage in carpools to the Sunshine Coast, a short ferry ride fro
 m Vancouver, to experience an unique and creative introduction to the 
 permaculture paradigm. \nAfter nine successful runs of this free intr
 o day, its been a great experience for people who are new to permacult
 ure as well as those who are deeply experienced. \ntogether we will :
 \ntalk about the ethos, principles,  toolkit and metastructure of per
 maculture,\ntour the gardens,\nmeet some of the food-medicine plants o

 nd have an inspiring day learning and growing with nature. \nThe day 
 will run on September 30 from 11 am - 5:30 pm, aligning with the bus l
 inked to the 9:40 am ferry from Horseshoe Bay and the 7:30 ferry retur
 ning to Vancouver. I will help to co-ordinate a carpool as well.\nTher
 e is a limited space so please RSVP to confirm your attendance to delv
 in@cosm.org.  Since its a free course, i am trusting that if you ask 
 for a space you will make a commitment to following through and attend
 ing the full day :) The spring weather varies, please come dressed to 
 be outside for short periods regardless of weather (dress warm and wit
 h rainproof gear or umbrella if you are worried about rain).\nLooking 
 forward to a day of wonderful people connecting and sharing about how 
 to be more conscious planetary citizens. \nDelvin Solkinson has compl
