Hello friends, This morning, we are thrilled to release the first three hours of the lectures we're putting online (there will eventually be hundreds of hours of film by the time we're done, plus a lot of non-film content). The lectures we are releasing are from one of our permaculture courses with Larry Korn, the translator of the incredible book One Straw Revolution by the Japanese natural farmer, Masanobu Fukuoka (www.onestrawrevolution.net and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masanobu_Fukuoka). Please note that the lectures are being released as a sample, just to give you a taste of what's coming in the next weeks and months; the full online course will include many other very high-profile instructors and a lot of non-film content. At the Regenerative Leadership Institute, we have the world's greatest permaculture teaching team -- our instructors are world leaders in their respective fields -- and we're thrilled to be making all this content available to you completely free of charge [ CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN FOR THE ONLINE COURSE ENDS IN FOUR DAYS - SUPPORT THE CAMPAIGN AND GET THE PERMACULTURE EBOOK OR THE WHOLE COURSE ON DVD: http://indiegogo.com/online-permaculture BY MIDNIGHT ON THURSDAY] So here are the first hours of the videos - be aware that these are drafts; much more editing will be done: Part 1: Introduction to Permaculture with Larry Korn: https://vimeo.com/60145901 Part 2: Introduction to Permaculture with Larry Korn: https://vimeo.com/60195313 Part 4: Introduction to Permaculture with Larry Korn: https://vimeo.com/60305502 While we're honored to take a decisive lead in doing the right thing and releasing this wisdom into the wild, let us be blunt: this should have been done decades ago.
