>Hi everyone,
>
>Jim of Jim's Mowing has seen that mowing lawns is not sustainable into the
>future, and with this thought in mind he approached Dan Palmer and Rick
>Coleman to conduct an Introduction to permaculture course for 26 of his
>Jim's Mowing Franchisees. The weekend course was well received, and both
>Jim
>and the franchisees were interested in completing a PDC course that would
>enable them to use the name permaculture in their business.
>
>Initially we encouraged Jim to call the franchise Jim's Permaculture
>Gardening, but Jim is more interested in being able to offer the whole
>concept of permaculture design for clients, from house retrofitting, water
>tank and solar installations, and he felt Jim's Permaculture Gardening
>would limit this potential. He also believes that it adds to the impression
>that permaculture is about gardening, which is a misconception many of us
>in
>the permaculture community have tried to clear up.
>
>Jim is fully aware of the ethics of permaculture, and is committed to
>providing an ethically based business enterprise. Rick and I believe that
>this is an excellent way to bring permaculture into the mainstream, and it
>will provide opportunities for more people in permaculture to join a known
>brand to promote what they do.
>
>A full PDC is being conducted over weekends starting in July through to
>September 2007. Jim has established a skeleton website and will add to the
>website once he has the PDC certificate. He is aware that all franchisees
>in
>future must have completed a PDC, if they wish to be involved in Jim's
>Permaculture.
