2021 is a year for tending the soil and Nurturing Community! It is our wish to see as many permaculture projects happen this year as possible. To do this best we are working to help EVERYONE WHO NEEDS IT get support to manifest their dream. Soon we will be sharing a grant-request questionnaire to help us match resources to needs, all the while documenting what permaculture in action looks like in the northwest. Together, we are creating teaching tools, a learning library and opportunities for work-parties!
Want to host some of the 2021 gathering? Let us know through the grant request form! (coming soon)
For our big shin-dig this fall, we hope to build on the success of our online convergence last year with digital home-base, paired with more live on-the-ground projects at host sites. We will follow our traditional schedule of Thursday night to Sunday night, live-streaming opening and closing circles, keynotes and all workshops, with the option to join in person regionally.
The digital format anchored with real gatherings across the land allows us to be super inclusive, flexible on pricing and to share the value of permaculture teaching for maximum impact.

The ORGANIZATION:
Northwest Permaculture Convergence (NWPCC) is a Washington state 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Its purpose is to provide education in the use of Permaculture as a powerful tool for helping to design and bring into being a culture and economy that can fit far better within the boundaries of Planet Earth. NWPCC is organized by a volunteer Board that oversees the year-to-year organizing of the annual Northwest Permaculture Convergence (The Convergence), as well as several new projects designed to increase networking and build resilience within the Permaculture community.
The EVENT:
Entering its 14th year, the annual Northwest Permaculture Convergence (The Convergence) is an inclusive weekend-long event that alternates between the states of Oregon and Washington. The Convergence brings together a remarkable diversity of people to share their creative approaches for designing living environments, economic systems, and culture practices that thrive within ecologically sustainable limits. Long time enthusiasts and beginners alike pilgrimage from every corner of the Cascadian Bioregion, to educate on their successes (and failures!). Dozens of workshops and skillshares happen simultaneously all weekend long, making The Convergence a rich and valuable resource within our community.
The Board of Directors oversees event management and is fiscally responsible for each year's event. NWPCC teams up with local communities for 'Shoulder Events”,' supporting our allies with tours, panel discussions, workshops, and classes. Every year, the organization offers a number of volunteer and work trade positions. Ride shares, home stays and food donations can be arranged.
