The Wisconsin Permaculture Convergence is a yearly event that brings people together to network, build community, skill share and celebrate life.

“The convergence last year was a wonderful experience. It was great to see attendees sharing life experiences and skills.

— Drew Carlson, Convergence Coordinator

“To be surrounded by like minds and to be able to learn from one another in a community like atmosphere was very rewarding. The passion and inspiration from the knowledge shared has allowed me to grow in my permaculture journey and spread that message to those who I encounter along the road.

— Heather Rupp, 2015 Convergence Participant
