Unfortunately I could not make it to this years Hui but nonetheless was voted onto the PiNZ Executive, so it was suggested that I share a bit about myself and my vision for Permaculture in New Zealand here in the Blog pages. So here goes.

I did my PDC back in about 96 with Bill Mollison at Tagari Farm in
Northern New South Wales but had done my first introductory course in
1993. In between the two I graduated from a Bachelor of Applied
Science Social Ecology, which came from the same grounding and
paradigm as Permaculture theory.
