Hi. I am Tanvi Somani. I was introduced to permaculture at the National Permaculture Concergence held in Hyderabad in November, 2016. I have completed a PDC under the guidance of permaculture expert, Narsanna Koppula recently. I have recently decided to change my career path as I wanted to do something that is more in harmony with my beliefs and also is sustainable. Permaculture seems like the perfect fit for me. I am looking to learn and gain experience in Applied Permaculture by working for and at farms that are practicing permaculture.
Hello Tanvi and welcome, Congratulations on completing your PDC! Do you have some farms in mind to work at? Are you looking internationally?
Hi Bill, I have started working with Narsanna and Padma Koppula at their organisation, Aranya Agricultural Alternatives in Hyderabad, India. They are into grassroots permaculture and teaching as well. I have joined here as Permaculture Course Coordinator. They are also hosting the 13th International Permaculture Convergence next year, and I am getting involved there in whatever way I can!
Excellent! Although not always clear, as we go, the path unfolds before us. Sounds like a great opportunity. Looking forward to hearing more about your work and the upcoming convergence.
