Permaculture Workshop at UTPA

I am looking forward to attending the Permaculture Workshop this coming week, sponsored by the University of Texas - Pan American.  The workshop will be led by Wayne Weiseman, an international leader in permaculture design.  Permaculture is an innovative design process that is based on one's design principles and ethics.  At Mata+Garcia Architects we use it as a guide for our the design of our buildings, by adapting patterns and relationships that are found in nature and applying them to all aspects of human habitation.

Location, climatic conditions and resources influence the strategies used to implement the principles of permaculture.  While the strategies may differ, the basic steps to the holistic approach of permaculture remain constant.

I will provide daily updates on the various talks and tours of RGVittes that are leading the permaculure movement here at home.  HRGarcia
