This year’s theme, Building Bridges, will focus on courageous conversations between diverse communities, movements, projects, and concepts and will include 100+ presenters, 7 stages, more than 10 tracks, 60+ workshops, panel discussions and breakout sessions to discuss:

Join us as we gather together for an inspirational five days of intensive focus with a common goal: to design, build, and strengthen regenerative communities and habitats, in accordance with nature, for humans, plants, animals, the greater bioregion, and the Earth at large.
PLENTY OF OPTIONS: Both Single Day and Multi-Day tickets are available.
Whether you are a seasoned permaculturalist, a transition town activist, a community organizer, or just wanting to learn game-changing skills to live more successfully and in greater harmony with people and the planet, in addition to finding community in the process…
