The “Iņķi” permaculture planning week together with permaculture professional Markus P. Pan took place from September 19-25, 2016 in Riga and “Iņķi” near Dobele, Latvia.

In total, around 20 people took part in the planning week, receiving practical and theoretical knowledge about permaculture and getting the possibility to try permaculture design on their own.

Here is some of the feedback we received from the participants:

• “Thank you for giving me time and space for co-creating!”
• “Thank you for organizing such an event! I will gladly come to another one!”
• “Thank you for the important job you are doing!”
