In response to requests we've reveive—from previous seminar participants—for even more hands—on experience we've redesigned some of our offering to create a series of one-day lecture-1st, courses, each of which will be accompanied by two complete days of workshop practice. If you sign up for Coy wood Construction or Low-Cost Solar, 1 example, you'll have the choice attending only the classroom day or stirring around for an additional two day of do-it-yourself experience. The work shops are an entirely optional part of the course work, and—since we want to limb the number of participants in order to sure that everyone involved has a chan to get his or her hands "dirty"—they be offered to attendees on a first corn first served basis. Meat and Dairy Production, Woodstove Construction an Maintenance, and Alternative Was Management, on the other hand, each offer a two-day combination seminar and hands—on workshop.

Next summer's seminar schedule will also include a roster of short classy (each lasting one day) which can be take en in sequence or singly.
