Pictured here are participants in the Natural Building Workshop at Wild Meadows Farm working on construction of an earth oven together at the weekend Workshop held in June. Chears is co-sponsoring a series of re-skilling and permaculture workshops at Wild Meadows Farm in Schellsburg PA. The next event is a 10-day intensive Permaculture Certificate Design Course August 6 to 15th. To promote design of more urban and suburban gardens in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, Chears is offering partial scholarships based on financial need to folks interested in working on permaculture designs for a specific space that has some possibility of being implemented. For example it can be your own yard or apartment balcony, your retirement community, your church-yard school or community garden. Folks interested in applying for partial scholarship support should prepare a letter describing their proposed permaculture design site and need for financial support.
