Great news! Jessica Peterson of Inside Edge Design based in Helena, Montana is going to be one of INPC’s keynote speakers. Jessica, along with Caroline Wallace, has been developing a public forest garden in Helena, 6th Ward Garden Park, since 2011. They have been assisted by David Jacke who taught a 10-day course there in 2015. Inside Edge Design just hosted Penny Livingston-Stark for a recent workshop and are holding their first pdc (permaculture design course) in 2016. They are on a roll and Jessica is coming to INPC to give us a taste of what they have learned.

More information about the Children's Program is HERE.
Skill-share Village: We are building a community village to share homesteading, ancestral and/or primitive skills, such as, blacksmithing, spinning, weaving, fiber craft, skills, flint-napping, fire making, tanning, buckskin sewing, pottery, bow and arrow making, etc., that can be demonstrated or be hands-on. You are invited to have a booth, tent or station to do your activities, show your stuff, and do education. Outreach and sales are encouraged. Go HERE for full details.
