The course introduces you to permaculture design and how to create an ecologically sound way of living by applying the principles of natural systems.  It is being held on an amazing 6 acre organic smallholding at Talbenny where there will be plenty of opportunities to see permaculture in action.

If you would like to bring permaculture into your life and want to find out more, please contact either the tutor Angie Polkey on 0845 4583814 or Sally Davies from Transition Haverfordwest on 07766213606.

The Pembrokeshire  ‘Food in Mind’ project helped Haverfordwest’s 2^nd Green Fayre to be a great success – it really showed the advantages of groups working well together.  The Green Fayre was organised by Transition Haverfordwest and Haverfordwest Going Plastic Bag Free and the ‘Food in Mind’ project really put the policy of local produce into practice.  They served locally grown organic baked potatoes with a range of delicious fillings, which were sourced from within the county as far as possible.  ‘Food in Mind’ are developing links with ‘Blue Skies,’ the veggie growing arm of Frame, as well as the award winning local company ‘Pembrokeshire Produce Direct’  which supplies a huge variety of local produce directly to your door – both of these were among the organisations represented at the Green Fayre.

The crowd was entertained by children from Wolfscastle School choir, as well as a fashion show organised by Just Nice, the clothing agency which helps you recycle unwanted outfits.

Adults and children alike made some amazing jewellery using pebbles collected from local beaches and recycled bits of spare jewellery.  People got the chance to try out the local cider and real ale, learnt how to knit or crochet and lots of people took the opportunity to sit out in the sunshine eating some of the scrumptious homemade cakes and goats milk ice-cream.

Listen to This MP3

The talk was advertised with the following text:

Peak Oil and the collapse of global Ponzi finance are a “perfect storm” of converging phenomena that threaten to sink our age of prosperity through wealth destruction, social discontent, and global conflict. Nicole will describe how our current financial system is an unsustainable credit bubble grounded in “Ponzi dynamics,” or the logic of the pyramid scheme. She warns that most people are woefully unprepared to face the consequences of the devastating deflation that is now unfolding.

In Transition - The Movie

It all starts off when a small collection of motivated individuals within a community come together with a shared concern: how can our community respond to the challenges, and opportunities, of Peak Oil, Climate Change and the Financial Crisis?
