Cam and Michelle Mather are offering a seminar at their farm - and you REALLY want to be there. DH and I went in the fall and it was amazing! I highly recommend it especially since some of you live very close by. They live near Tamworth, Ontario - north of Napanee.

.... I decided I that I will continue to promote our own smaller scale workshops that we hold here at the house. I like them a lot. They are much more intimate and the people who come are enthusiastic and open to new ideas. We meet a lot of like-minded people at our workshops, and that is always a treat.
In our fall workshop I had a lot I wanted to pack into the day, but I had to back off a bit and give the participants some time to mingle. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a group of 12 strangers become so completely comfortable with each other so quickly. During the outside tours of the solar panels and the wind turbine and the gardens, there were times when several people ventured off on their own to talk. It was great to see people making new connections.
I think sharing lunch and coffee breaks helped too. People quickly lost their inhibitions with strangers and wanted to share what they were up to. It was an awesome day and so I’ve decided to put my efforts into more of these rather than the documentary. It’s easy for people who think things will continue on the way they always have to dismiss the concept of prepping. I’m happy to spend the day sharing what I’ve learned in our search for self-sufficiency.
Details of the workshop can be found here; http://www.cammather.com/off-grid-retreat/upcoming-workshops-at-sunflower-farm . If you or anyone you know might be interested please forward this link to them. Our April 21st workshop is quickly filling up. Here are some of the comments we received about our fall workshop:
“I was really impressed that the whole day lived up to the title! Cam has woven together a giant tapestry of knowledge and how-to; hearing and seeing his work in action was really inspiring.”
* * * * * * *
“Cam & Michelle shared their experience of their journey to sustainable living with us – through science, humour and the wisdom that comes from just doing it!”
* * * * * * *
“Coming today was a dream come true – I’ve only every read about ‘this stuff.’ It was encouraging & enlightening. Thanks so much. Love, love, love it!”
The participants seemed pretty pumped about it and I’m pretty pumped about doing it all again!
