NOTE: this meeting will be at The Residence, 240 South Rd Every week, we throw things away without a second thought. Food scraps, broken cellphones, worn-out products — into the bin they go. But what if the way we throw things away is costing our community money, growing our landfills, and polluting the places we love — and there's a better way that actually makes economic sense? Our speaker today has made it his mission to teach communities this opportunity to live a healthier and happier life. Ed Tivnan is America's first certified Professional Facilitator of the French Circular Economy Collage — a credential he earned in October 2025. He is a former high school biology teacher with 14 years in the classroom. He is also President of the Clipper City Toastmasters. |

This will be a virtual event - ONLINE ONLY Permagardens – a creative and proven combination of permaculture with bio-intensive gardening – makes it possible for a family to grow all the nutritious vegetables they need in a four-meter by four-meter square, including during dry seasons and droughts. Vitamin A-rich vegetables prevent stunting in children. It takes families away from unsustainable markets for food, while surpluses can be sold to pay for school fees, medicines, and other household essentials. Working in multiple countries in Africa and in India, The Permagardens Foundation trains people – more than 80% of them women – to become self-sufficient and attain food sovereignty. Besides being Board Chair of The Permagardens Foundation – www.permagardens.earth – David Albert was also the founder of Friendly Water for the World.
