PermaTalks 2026 vol.6

PermaTalks Volume 6

PermaTalks are informal online gatherings where permaculturists from across Europe meet to connect, exchange ideas, and inspire each other. They are a place to learn from real-life experiences, explore new designs and methods, and strengthen our sense of community within the European Permaculture Network.

PermaTalks Volume 6 begins on Thursday, 15 January 2026, and continues weekly.

A special highlight will be the Peripheral LINKs Convergence PermaTalks day on 12 February 2026, featuring a full day of interesting sessions, which you can see at the Convergence site.

These sessions are not only about learning and sharing; they’re also a fundraiser for the European Permaculture Network. Without your participation, we can’t keep this vital network alive. Your presence truly makes a difference!
