Delvin Solkinson’s next awesome publication will be a mega extension of the popular Permaculture Design Deck. This new edition will feature many new cards by Robin Clayfield, Graham Bell and Susan Weed. Robin has contributed heroically to the new edition of this creative resource deck, including sharing a new feature framework that she unpacks in her upcoming book called the ‘Vision Tree’. The Permaculture Design Deck, now 20 years in the making, recently rewritten at sacred places on Delvin and Grace’s Irish honeymoon last September has gone to print at last! You can download the 2018 edition for free or support the initiative by pre-ordering a deck. Here’s the Link.  

Robin’s wonderful creative friend, collaborator, author and documenter extraordinaire Delvin Solkinson recently asked Ben Tour to create an artistic image of her for use in her work and promotions and also for Delvin to use in his eNewsletters, books and promotions. “Thanks so much Delvin, I love it, though it is rather flattering and shows me as a younger woman! I can live with that.” Robin said recently.

After a very successful Permaculture Design Course (PDC) at Crystal Waters last September, the Crystal Waters Cooperative and the organisation team have decided to offer two PDC’s this year. The first one is just under a month away from 6th to 20th March. It’s an intensive 14 day training with a focus on design and all the basics for understanding Permaculture Principles and applying them to design and sustainability. There will also be lots of fieldtrips, hand’s on implementation, interactive activities and great learning from a variety of skill full, local Permaculture presenters and educators. Here’s the link to the website with full details.
