Local Transition Joshua Tree members Tim Delorey and Nicholas Holmes have received scholarships from the Nutiva company to attend the Permaculture Voices Convention from March 13 – 16 in Temecula, CA. The convention will be comprised of 60 sessions featuring over 40 world-renown speakers who are on the cutting edge of permaculture research. Permaculture is a land use design method that works with the deep patterns of nature to regenerate ecosystems and create sustainable human habitation. Each Scholarship applicant had to submit an exhaustive application to demonstrate that he or she is an Eco-Entrepreneur: someone who has been running an eco-business for less than 2 years or is in the process of starting an eco-business that doesn’t yet exist.
