Dynamic Groups, Dynamic Learning Dynamic Courses, Books, Resources and Tours for Healthy Groups, People and Culture with Robin Clayfield
Late April saw 350 Permaculture Folks converge on Mt Barker in South Australia for the 16th Australasian/Australian Convergence. 
The event had sold out quickly so live streaming of a few of the sessions was made possible. So much great information was offered and shared and the most luscious and locally sourced food was a delight for all.
The most commented on element was that of connection and catching up with old friends and new. A Chai Tent supported the social design of the space and the Waldolf school buildings and environment enhanced the whole experience.
‘The three Robin’s’ shared a cabin together for the event and were together again for the first time in many years. Quite amusing really – Robyn Francis, Robina McCurdy (who was a Robyn) and Robin Clayfield, all wise ‘old’ Permaculture Elders.
Robyn Francis and Robin Clayfield are celebrating 40 years since doing their PDC (Permaculture design Course) together in November.
Robin also ran a two day ‘Social Permaculture’ workshop with Robina McCurdy as one of the Month of Permaculture Festival events, right in the middle of Adelaide at The Joinery in the week after the APC.
Robin also visited the Brookman’s ‘The Food Forest’ in Gawler, which was awesome and such a helpful example of a semi-arid Permaculture farm producing tree crops and education, among a diverse ecosystem.
Many thanks to all the organizer and volunteers of the APC and Festival Events.
Such a special time.
Watch this space to hear when the next one will be, most likely in 2 years time in a different state.
