Vision for 2025 Convergence – Walking in a New Forest

Florida Permaculture Convergence, celebrating the power of regenerative agriculture, homesteading, and sustainability! Our theme this year is Planting the Future: Cultivating Resilience through Succession.  Here, we’ll explore ways to use what we’ve already got to be healthier and more adaptive.  The aim is to encourage, educate, and inspire through an immersive weekend filled with hands on learning from community experts.  Whether you’re a seasoned permaculturist or simply curious about practical ways to live more sustainably, you’re sure to find inspiration and practical tips at our event. Let’s come together to learn and grow as we discover the amazing power of permaculture.

Saturday is our Earthskills village featuring six villages each featuring multiple demonstrations.  The villages include Creative (natural building & art), Economics (the business of growing – how to sustain yourself and your family through permaculture), First Aid (wilderness first aid, medicinal gardens, how to make basic first aid medicines), Plants & Propagation (growing, syntropic farming, grafting, seed saving, and more), Homesteading (blacksmithing, tool care, wood working, fermenting, and bee keeping), and Social (Non-violent Communication, interpersonal relationships, managing conflict).

Sunday we focus on Planting and plant walks.  We will learn about natives and permaculture favorites as well as how to grow and use these beauties.  This includes a plant swap.  

As always we will include music, yoga, farm to table meals, and the famous trade blanket.  Follow our social media to get all the updates on schedules and presenters.  This year we are adding a sustainable art gallery and as always a weekend pass gets you free vending.
