[montanafood_ag] Presentation on Solutions to the Climate Crisis, Whitefish on September 14 & Herbal Extravanganza workshops

Fri Sep 1 15:34:12 MDT 2023

To my friends and acquaintances who care — Please consider spreading the word about these ecological and herb events with your mailing list and with persons who you feel would like to come to any or all of these events.

Michael “Skeeter” has been wildcrafting herbs, building herb forests, offering major educational herb and permaculture events, and teaching permaculture for over 35 years in the Pacific NW.  This is his first time back to Montana in several years and I am very excited to host his sharing with others here on our farm.  Please spread the word to those who might be interested.  

His Thursday night presentation on Global Earth Repair will bring those interested up to date on the various solution based initiatives addressing our current  ecological imbalances.  This free informative talk is something not to miss if you care.

Thank you for sharing and I hope to see you at one or all of these events..
